Thread: User registration with activation link - double opt in

User registration with activation link - double opt in

Hello to all CP-Users and developers

As mentioned in this Blog-Entry (http://wpclassipress.com/3-0-user-dashb ... g-preview/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false there´s one thing still missing also in 3.0. It concerns user registration.

It´s very good, that they are mandatory with release of 3.0. BUT: There should be an acitvation mail for getting an "double opt in" User registration. Like standard in most forums or communities (also this forum ) -> So after registering on the page the user should get confirmation Mail including unique activation-link. This data must be saved to proof registration in case of friction.

Can you please implement this for 3.0, so user fills out registration form, gets a mail (as actual with username and password) and must activate account through activation-link. So email-adress is verified. So called "double opt in" (registration IP and timestamp / confirmation IP and timestamp) is necessary for legal security (at least here in Germany).

Thanks for your feedback

Best regards

Solution inside: User registration with activation link

Hello again,

I talked to David and heard that classipress uses standard WP-registration engine without activation/double opt in. Also for future releases. So we must work on that part of wordpress to realize double-opt-in validation also for classipress.

Result of my research is a working plugin for that To share knowledge an close this request here is the link for the right plugin. Not from me and hard to find but doing a very good job:

With this plugin you give classipress a double-opt-in registration :P
