    I need to add (perhaps instead of or perhaps as well as email confirmation) a moderator to approve new users before they can log in. Is this built into weblogin or webloginpe in a way I dont know about?

    Better still, I need to add that user to certain groups based on a region selection box in the application form and then the relevant moderator be emailed about the registration.

    Any ideas anyone?

      IIRC, WLPE has a mode which requires the user to "validate" their account. You should be able to "hack" it to send it to the moderator.

      The usergroup can be set up as the user registers, although I dunno if this works if it’s being done by validation. You could have the moderator "accept" the account, then create a special "moderator" page that edits the new user’s account info *there’s a type=`manage` option that does this).

      IIRC, that type has a few bugs in the "clean" install you downloaded, but there’s been bugfixes since then. Myself and a group of other people are working to get a v1.3.1 release finished, that includes all of the current bugfixes.

        Thanks. I need it one stage moe than this though. With region tables and region table specified moderator. Guess I am going to have to do that a? It would be nice if I had a copy of 1.3 to work with though.

        I am a coldfusion person really and would like to see this cms ported to CF (and CF is now open source, see the OpenBD project), so this isnt so easy for me but I will try!!
