the hack adds “the new users’ e-mail address to the e-mail with the activation link. This way you’ll know which activation link belongs to which user.” This is really needed!
Is there another line to add to functions.php that will add the email address?
Actually what we need is a plugin that creates a pending membership panel in the admin so you can go in and active or mark as spam… just like comments!
The /*disable blog signup for non logged in member*/ code from @sbrajesh didn’t work… it didn’t remove the create a blog from the signup page.. I got a spam blog within minutes.
ah well that’s it for this rainy Sunday afternoon…. When I get some time next I’ll start but updating to php5 and then I’ll check back with the forum. Thanks everyone!
So all I had to do was add the following two code snippets to my /wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/functions.php file and both these issues are fixed! Next step will be upgrading to php5.
/*redirect activation email to admin for approval*/
function my_redirect_activation_email()
{
return get_site_option( “admin_email” );
}
add_filter(‘bp_core_activation_signup_user_notification_to’, ‘my_redirect_activation_email’);
/*disable blog signup for non logged in member*/
add_filter(“wpmu_active_signup”,”bpdev_check_current_users_blog”);
function bpdev_check_current_users_blog($active_signup){
global $current_user;
if( !is_user_logged_in() )
return “none”;
else
return $active_signup;//if the user is logged in, do not change the site policies
}
I’m really struggling to find my way around – I’m experienced with WP but not with WPMU or BuddyPress structure. How do I change this text?
Sign Up Complete!
You have successfully created your account! To begin using this site you will need to activate your account via the email we have just sent to your address.
sigh… like a number of plugins the bp-registration-options won’t activate
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in /…../clubfootclub.org/community/wp-content/plugins/bp-registration-options/bp-registration-options.php on line 23
Thanks for your response Brajesh – I’ll check these out
for the second…. if I select only logged in users can create new blogs this also disables new user registration completely.
Yes I need to have the host upgrade to PHP5 but I have a number of sites on the account and I just don’t have time right now to do any debugging if things break right now.
– a lot list country entry as random characters “Ot9XLfiFD7WNCu” Is there a way to set Country so it has to be a legit one?
– a lot come from email addresses such as “myspacee.info” “@mysace.info” Is there a way to force email confirmation … so they have to receive an email and click on a link to confirm registration?
– is there a way to mark someone as a spammer and delete them at the same time in the admin?
Sigh… I don’t have time for this so I may give up.
Would be nice if a site user can “Flag” a spam entry to disable the user.
