G.R.E.A.T Plugin, just what I wanted…but, and there is always a but..

When used in conjunction with FaceBookConnect plugin, the authorisation is circum-navigated completely and renders it useless.

Is this something which you could / would consider fixing?

Please eMail me if you do as I’ll re-install it in a flash!

Thanks

Loz

Another cool feature would be the ability to customize the emails sent to users. Any chance of including that? I’m thinking of hacking it to do it but if you’re going to include that then maybe I’ll hold off.

Great plugin, btw.

I will be adding an options page with the next major release. I will be sure to include this as an option.

To answer the question on sending out denied emails…
edit new-user-approve.php and comment out line 396

@wp_mail($user_email, sprintf(__(‘[%s] Registration Denied’, $this->localizationDomain), get_option(‘blogname’)), $message);

This should prevent it from sending the email.

Now, to automatically delete Denied users, try this.
In new-user-approve.php, immediately after:
update_usermeta($user->ID, ‘pw_user_status’, ‘denied’);

insert this line (should land around line 400):

wp_delete_user($user->ID);

Hope this helps.

Paul brings up a great point. If I deny someone, I don’t want an email sent at all. As I stated above, I would much rather be able to delete their request right then and be done with it. I don’t think I owe an email or explanation. In other words a “Deny” should just be a “Delete”. If you can figure out how to send it to a “blacklist”, that would be cool, but not necessary.

ALSO, I would like to be able to edit the email that is sent out to those I do approve. For example, I personally want those people I do approve of to update their profile to at least enter their first and/or last name. I need that capability to edit the email being sent.

Very nice plugin. Just playing around with it, doesn’t seem to unapprove a user once they’re approved if you subsequently unappprove them.

Paul, lfp, look for the mail from plugin. Paul, you could change this address to a fake address if denying spammers. Ideally a checkbox after each user seeking approval whether to send a mail or not would be a nice way to do it.

This is a great plugin and an improvement over some of the other ones out there.

I do have one request though: I would LOVE to simply be able to delete the reprobates that I do not approve. I don’t have any need to fill up my users table with a bunch of fake names.

Right now I am going though my list of 2800+ registered users trying to find and delete roughly 300+ bad registrations. It would be so much simpler for me to have the option of trashing them.

Or maybe a feature that would automatically purge them after being on the “deny” list for n days?

Part of the description for this plugin that I read states: “An email is then sent to the user indicating whether they were approved or denied.”
However, if I deny a user (spammer) I would prefer NOT to send an email, so I don’t reveal a live email address. Can this be configured?
