Button to force new account's e-mail validation

Use case is follows:

  1. New visitor opens portal and presses "Register" link.
  2. After typing all required info,  he presses "Register" button.
  3. For some reason, e-mail may not be sent to him, so user cannot validate himself and to prove correctness of e-mail.
  4. Then I login to the portal as Admin and press "Unlock user" button in this user's profile. User is unlocked now.
  5. When this already unlocked user tryes to login, he fails due to "No validated e-mail" reaso

Then I tryed to force validation directly via MySQL, but I did not find the place where e-mail validation flag is. Help me to find this column, please. It have to exist somewhere, haven't it?

But IMHO "Force validation button" is better.

Thank you in advance,

CarGa.

Re: Button to force new account's e-mail validation

Hi,

Good point, I will add this feature, probably tomorrow, it will be easy.

To fix it in the db, look in the mp_Users table, the column is RegisterConfirmGuid, if you update it to empty guid or null it will activate the user.

Thanks,

Joe
