Re: [Tikiwiki-users] What does email confirmation do exactly?

[Michael P. <mlp...@gm...>]

There is also a checkbox there for   " ... but need admin validation:"

which creates a list of pending users to approve.


let us know how well that plays with the "validate by email option" i
have never used both at once.

I agree that the logical flow would be validate email and then que for
approval.
