Hello, I'm running a new installation on a public address. However, I'd like to screen new users. That is, new users insert their username and email, and I get a notification. Then they get a confirmation email only if I approve the user. Is this possible? If so, how? If not, is there any other way to screen user registrations? Thank you very much. Gonçalo Luiz

This feature is not officially supported yet (but plans are in the works) What you can do is use the verified registration mechanism and set the verification email to not have the link for verifying the user but rather tell them that they will recieve word when their application is reviewed. See: http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Access Rights#HPrivateWikiwithpassword As far as telling the user that they have been approved, you may have to write a script to send out the email but you can use the mail sender plugin in your script. http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Plugins/MailSenderPlugin Caleb Gonçalo Luiz wrote:

Hello, I've followed your advise. What I need now is to manually confirm users' accounts. The steps are: 1 - The user registers 2 - The system sends me an e-mail (this is already working) 3 - I get the e-mail, login as an admin and confirm the user 4 - The user logs in How can I perform step 3? Thank you for your valuable help. Regards, Gonçalo Luiz On 26 June 2010 10:02, Caleb James DeLisle <calebdelisle(a)lavabit.com> wrote:

So you have the registration page tell the user that their registration will be reviewed, and it sends _you_ and email? If so then you can just put the approval token in the email and click it when you get it. Alternatively you can log in and open the user's page in the object editor and set the "Active" select menu to "Active" and save their page. This can also be done with a script but you'd have to write it. Caleb Gonçalo Luiz wrote:

Hello Caleb, In fact there is another mail that is sent to the user (as there was before my editing) without the token. In the meanwhile I used the following snippet in a page to activate users: {{velocity}}{{html wiki="false"}} #set ($results = $xwiki.wrapDocs($xwiki.searchDocuments(", BaseObject obj, IntegerProperty act where obj.className = 'XWiki.XWikiUsers' and obj.name = doc.fullName and act.id.id = obj.id and act.id.name = 'active' and act.value <> 1"))) <ul> #foreach($d in $results) <li>$xwiki.getUserName($d.fullName) (<a href="$d.getURL('save', 'XWiki.XWikiUsers_0_active=1')&xredirect=$doc.getURL()">activate</a>)</li> #end </ul> {{/html}} #if($results.empty) No users lacking activation. #end {{/velocity}} Not sure if it is the best solution, but it seems to be working. Thanks very much. Gonçalo Luiz On 28 June 2010 12:06, Caleb James DeLisle <calebdelisle(a)lavabit.com> wrote:
