Question

Hi everybody.

The task is to make users wait for admin's approval before registering them in twiki userlist. Some kind of a manual registrations (default should be automatic in these terms).

A user comes to twiki site, fills the register form and his information comes to admin. Admin approves user's registration and only than RegistrationAgent writes a new user into UserList.

Is it possible somehow? Some kind of a plugin or addon?

If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

This is currently not directly supported.

Workaround: Define an ApprovedUsersGroup that lists all approved users. Restrict access to the site to this group. See TWikiAccessControl.

Note: If you restrict access to the Main, make sure to add the TWikiRegistrationAgent in Main.WebPreferences so that users can register.
