Auto-Validating Customers

Hello guys, just wondering if there's a module that allows auto validation like some features other cart offers? It's quite tedious that you'll have to approve each customers yourself. Whereas the customer just click on the link through the validation mail and it's auto-approve...
Do we have such features or I'll have to do it manually every time? Thanks.

if you're using OC 1.4.7, go to the Backend
System>Settings>Option>Approve New Customers=No

Sorry guys for late feedback.
It's like pretty much the customers auto validate their mail address by clicking on the URL from the validation mail and the user becomes valid. Just like simple feature. Do we have it or?
The option you're speaking of, don't actually validate the users. It's just that users simply register themselves and they don't need validation. They can be bogus users.
Cheers!

I don't think this feature is planned.
I can see where validating emails is important for online forums and such, but I don't see a big demand or benefit for an online store?
You may want to post in the commercial forum and see if someone can build you a custom mod.

Hi Hildebrando,
Your extension is already halfway to the function that xtr3mx7 wants.
Do you think it could be reconfigured to send the email activation link to the customer instead of the admin without opening any security holes?

Hi:
For an online store... it is not interisting.
It's not the best way but you only need change the text at text_login in catalog/language/english/mail/account/create.php
and
comment the lines 23 and 25 at catalog/model/account/customer.php like this
Code: Select all
//if (!$this->config->get('config_customer_approval')) {
$this->db->query("UPDATE " . DB_PREFIX . "customer SET approved = '1' WHERE customer_id = '" . (int)$customer_id . "'");
//}
and you'll have an auto-validating system
Best,
Hilde
