Hello and good morning. I am, in a wy, trying to replicate neighborhood HOA facebook group and need to find a way to approve the basic registration. When a user First visits the page they are given the option to log in if they already have an account or they must register. Then when they register all they need to do is enter an email address and a password then they can go into the site with all of the abilities. I do understand that there is an option for email verification to help with spam in that membership levels et cetera can limit different forms of access. What I would like to do at first is to simply add a little more to the registration process so that I can confirm the person registering indeed lives in the neighborhood like on a Facebook group. This also means that it would have to be manually approved. Is there a way to customize the Initial registration form for new guests and also have basic registration require approval. Thank you in advance
Hello,
Did you check the settings ?
/hivepress/settings/users
Maybe you should add some custom attributes on the user’s original form (like “location”, possibly using the geolocation extension), and setting them as “required” .
But obviously it will remain declarative and “in good faith”.
If you are familiar with coding, maybe using _moderated would help, so that you’re user is actually moderated.
$form['fields']['field_name']['_moderated'] = true;
My two cents,
