Unhappy Email Validation not Working
Members register, receive the validation email, and click on the link, yet they never become members and stay in validating "limbo." Some have repeatedly requested new validation emails, and the same thing happens with each email---nothing.

Forum is here: DBZ Fanfic Salon Library

I would change the board to admin validation, but I cannot locate it in the ACP menu. I can't find a link to any of the global settings (like flood control, etc.)

Thanks for your help.

While I hate replying to myself, I couldn't help noticing the front page of Forumer congratulating itself on its fourth birthday.

"Not a baby anymore."

Then please do the adult thing and at least respond when members ask for assistance.

BTW, I also mentioned this was a problem back in July. I guess the blanket "This has been fixed" didn't include all the problems I noted in my request for assistance.

Thanks for your help.
AdminCP -> System Settings -> Security & Privacy -> in the Security (Troublesome Users) section you'll find the New registration email validation? question, chose the option you want and click on Submit changes.

The flood control is in the same section..... just fill in the seconds you want to set it to and click on submit changes.


Hope it helps for now, we will look into the e-mail validation problem.

Thanks for choosing Forumer.

USEFUL TIP: If your support request gets resolved, click on THREAD TOOLS > MARK THIS THREAD AS SOLVED. This will mark the thread RESOLVED and will close the thread. (please use this tip!)

Please do not PM/e-mail me for support unless I ask you to.
Do a search and if you don't find your answer create a thread with your question and I will be happy to help. I can not be replying the same answer over and over in an e-mail/PM. Thanks.
