Re: ACP Add User MOD

Post by wr123 »

Thank you for this module - adding users from ACP works great! But I have some problems.
Please help me. I have read a lot of posts but can't find how I cat disable user registration on phpbb 3.0.2.

in this topic was writen that:

Allows Admins to create users and set user registration to (off) effectively creating a private board.

I set up this mod, but cant find where to turn off registration.

Can you give may be step step instruction to disable user registration?

Howdy wr123, when you are in the main ACP, you should on the left see a main header labeled "Board configuration", under that header you should see "User registration settings" click that one, now mine is at the top of the new page that opens in the right, I have 4 options, (radio type) Disable, None, By User, By Admin.

Hi,

I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but I followed the instructions to the letter in the install XML file, however, when I log in to the ACP, under the System tab, there is no Module Management option. Am I doing something wrong?

Someone please help!! I'm using phpbb 3.0.2

Thanks,
S

You need to follow instructions and go into the system tab and install the module and then it appears after you refresh

Most users probably don't make a notice of this, but I just noticed a minor misspelling in the language file after I just installed this MOD:

File: language/en/mods/info_acp_add_user_mod.php

Code: Select all

'ADD_USER_EXPLAIN'	=> 'Create a new user account. If your activation settings are to Admin Activativation only, you will have the option to activate the user instantly.',
According to the misspelling found here, is this a "double activation"..... ;)

Greetings,
Fantastic MOD! I found it very easy to install.

One question: it is possible to have the registration email sent to the admin creating the user instead of the newly registered user? My board is used for business and I would like to forward the registration email on my own time instead of when the user is created. It would even be acceptable for me to hard code an email address.

Again, thanks for the great MOD!

I'm new to phpBB and have just installed the forum on my server. However I have never installed a MOD before and I urgently need to set up the 'ACP Add User MOD'. Could someone clearly outline what files to copy where and any other particular steps? That would help me out a lot, as I have not been able to find detailed information (or at least in a language I can understand).

Thanks in advance.

I installed the MOD, and it appears to be working correctly, except that nobody is getting confirmation emails. I even ran six or seven addition cycles using my various addesses, and over an hour later I'm still waiting for even one of them to turn up.

Is there something I could check here?

Disregard...

I had email sending checked to NO (the first bullet) in the ACP. I turned it to YES and all is well. I just had to delete and re-send all the new registrations I had sent, though. I did run another check on myself, and I got the email.

Sorry for the blip...

I have installed this but it doesn't send the confirmation emails, does send mail have to be enabled for it to work?

You COULD activate though the ACP but to send the email it needs to be selected to do so

Do THAT in User registration settings under General

Account activation:

This determines whether users have immediate access to the board or if confirmation is required. You can also completely disable new registrations.

Disable None By User By Admin

Then you need to have by: USER checked in Account activation

But I don't want anyone to be able to register, just the people I give logins too with the add user mod

You could email them yourself and then individually activate each account manually instead
