Registration Moderation Not Working

Registration Moderation does not work when:

  • CAPTCHA is disabled
  • Registration Moderation is enabled
  • See attached screen shot (RegModNotWorking.png)
  • Behavior Description:
    • User self registers
    • User receives validation email
    • User can validate and can log in without prior moderator approval
    • User can participate and post without prior moderator approval
    • User is searchable by community without prior moderator approval
    • Moderator/Admin is notified via "Your Stuff" link being orange that a registration approval is waiting

 

Please advise.

Re: Registration Moderation Not Working

Hey Matt,

 

Thanks, I was able to reproduce this issue. I did some digging and found this bug (CS-11676 - Registration moderation can be bypassed if email validation is turned on). This was filed as a high priority bug and has been fixed as of 2.5.9. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks Matt.

2.5.7 is the most current available version. 2.5.8 should be released soon (within a week or two) and then 2.5.9 should be 2-4 weeks after that. Thanks.

Hey Matt,

 

That's correct. It would be roughly that long depending on if there are any major roadblocks. It will probably be quicker than that. The fix for this issue doesn't appear to be extremely complex and could like be implemented as a custom war if its absolutely critical. I really reccommend staying away from thing kind of thing though. Thanks.

Re: Registration Moderation Not Working

Hi Todd,

 

We are seeing a very similar issue in our environment (2.5.7); registration moderation and user created accounts are enabled, but email validation is *not* enabled. Users who have not been approved are enabled and can access the entire site. (I got a private message from one of them.) This is a security problem for us. Is this the same issue as the one you referenced? Is it fixed in 2.5.9?

 

Thanks,

Paul
