User email confirmation

I dont know if its a bug, but when a user register, and need to confirm email... if he dont... he still can create album... but cant upload music into the album.. when he try he only see Permission denied.... the point is that maybe user will forget to activate their account by mail... so the error message should tell him that his account is still not activated by email.... not only show permission denied...  some of my user are people who are not very good with website browsing.. so i have to make the website the most easy and understanding easy for most of them... and this is a little complicated... the only time user KNOW that he have to confirm the account by email is after he click the join button... but the message is not showing very clearly... if the member miss this message... never the website will told him again... that s the point i want to discuss... if the member dont activate the account by email.. this warning should show up on most of the section he browse or into the access denied warning message... and the user should also be able to have the function to receive again the confirmation email if the emai is lost and delete...

thx

What you might want to do is look at the language string called _Access denied.

You can add a your own message to state something like:

You do not have permission to access this location. This could be a problem with your account activation. Please make sure that you have clicked the link that was sent to your enrollment email to activate your account.

Just a suggestion. I dont like that fact that it is not more explanatory either.

so it still a thing that boonex should work on it?

Hello totallyfreak!

We've fixed this trouble - non-active users can't create albums in next RC.

thx leo

and what about the thing that user only see access denied unstead of a warning message about email activation and also a link to resend the activation email for those who miss it...

I applied all the latest fixes for RC3. Now both admin and active members cannot Add album nor view My albums :-(

No error, just a page with header and footer with no content...

I've already speaked about it in another 3d.... boonex team tell me that showing a specific alert take too much time and they are in RC state...and they can't do it...

For me have no sense to lock out a user without confirmed email and don't tell him why!

We have to remember to users that they have to confirm email to use the site...otherwise he can think the community don't work and leave the site....but boonex wont to understand this!

this is EXACTLY the point i talk about... user are lost in the dolphin website... not enough explaination message... boonex have to understand that all of our member are not boonex member...  so they dont understand completly how dolphin works... the script should give more info to newbie member to know how to use the website... starting with a warning message if user still havent activate their account by email... even if admin select this option... there is no place where this requirement is written in the join page(except a fade message that most people dont see)... so how member should know that he have to activate their account by email...
