Members Only Content - Admin to approve user - No auto register

[sarnaiz]

This was going to be implemented in the CUsers plugin (see here). Development there continues but I don't know how far it has got, I don't know if the latest version is in Extend either. Ask on the CUsers thread, or download the latest from github and see how it is going.

I will install and test this plug in. It may work. I just don't want people who are not paid members to be able to create an account and get access automatically.

Thank you very much for your response. I had looked it over and thought it wouldn't work, but upon rereading, perhaps it will. It may put more work on the admin though so I will have to see what's it like to use it. Perhaps if I can do a bulk import of the members it would be easier for the client.

I won't really know till I install and test.

Neither CUsers or Front End Users would work the way I needed and I spent far too much time trying them. I ended up using a member login script I had purchased from www.phpjabbers.com and had customized by them for another job. It turned out to be a snap to install in GS and works exactly how I need it to. The user registers, the admin gets an email and logs in to confirm the member, the user gets a confirm email and then can access the web site member only pages. This way we can restrict the member only content to paid members. Simple and efficient!!
