I'm creating a members section on my site using spip to authenticate my
site members, as they will all have author access.
However, I would like to allow members to request access to the site
themselves. e.g. Sign up as an author from the website.
However, I want any signup requests to be approved by one of the site
administrators before we send them a username & password.
Is this possible within spip, or am I going to have to change this into
a "mail admin" type form, then get the admins to create the accounts
from scratch. Not ideal, as they'll know the users passwords!
I think this would be a good feature for spip if its not possible
already.
However, I want any signup requests to be approved by one of the site
administrators before we send them a username & password.
Is this possible within spip, ...
I can't help really, as I don't know.
But I see that two articles in the French documentation might help, if you
can find a French-speaker to help you: Le support LDAP - SPIP explains how to link SPIP to a
LDAP directory.
Thanks for those links. My french is just good enough to make sense of
what google translate gets wrong!
Well, pushing the member database out to LDAP may be an option, but that
doesn't really help too much as I'll still have to do some coding to
moderate sign-up requests via the administrators, and I'd need to hack
inc-login.php3 to push any register requests out to my code, rather than
registering with spip.
There has to be a better way. I want to leverage the moderation
routines used available for forum posting, but apply that to author
registrations.
If this is not possible, how do we submit a feature request?
Regards,
Paul.

Well, maybe if the developers have been keeping an eye on this list, they'll
have noted this already. However, it's a busy time just now, with the beta
of the new multilingual version (1.7) just out - that is where the energy
has been going recently.
However, whereas the spip@rezo.net is the French-speaking users' list, I
think it would be quite in order to send a message in English to the
spip-dev list. I find a convenient way of following it is with a news reader
at gmane.comp.web.spip.devel
