Is it possible or is there a setting to make sure a signup/new registration has to verify first through a verification email his/her registration by clicking a link in the verification email?

I have only a single optin setting here and I cannot find a double optin / verification setting.

Right now it goes like:
register, submit, done.

When someone submits a false email -of someone else- and you would send a mass email out, you could be accused of spam because the owner of that email address never confirmed to receive emails; it could even happen with the automated welcomes email.

Better would be:
register > submit > verification email send to email address submitted and not yet access to pligg back office, but goes to a thank you for registration, please check your inbox page > signup locates verification email in his submited email inbox > click on verification link in this verification email > this confirms that the new signup is really the owner of the email address

New user can login from this moment on and not before.
----

Is there a setting and if not, why not? and is there A module / mod for it then?

please advise.

Ray

sure it is if you are using 9.8.2 the instructions at http://forums.pligg.com/pligg-mods/4...il-v0-1-a.html will help.

if you are using 9.9.0 - then there is a commercial version available from us at a very low cost (send email to sales [at] dollars5 [dot] com or send a PM to me), demo at Pligg Beta 9 / Register
