Email validation for new members, an incomplete error message, and incomplete activation link message


Using Jamroom

Strumelia:all the more reason to simply delete very old blank profile members who have not logged in for years.
Why?
researchcooperative:Deleting the sleeping ancients is probably the first thing I should be doing.
Why?

I bet you both spend hours a week deleting old emails, amending your xmas card list, and tidying up your 2GB hard drive!!!

Why do you want to delete inactive members? They are inactive, nobody sees them.

Can the number of allowed profiles be 1 while the number of allowed quotas is 2?


Using Jamroom

Give it a try!

Nothing will be lost. If you have a profile with blog posts which gets moved to a quota where blog posts are not allowed the blog features are removed but the posts remain in the database. You can then try out moving the profile back to a quota which allows blogs - the posts will reappear.

Using Jamroom

It’s the same profile, only the quota changes. That gives the profile different capabilities and features. Read the beginners guide to profiles and quotas in the docs.

Using Jamroom

The best thing to do is to design your quota system to be as simple as possible. It will become more complex over time anyway (in response to actual needs).

Why do you need to downgrade them? Just make location and work_interests search conditions in your jrCore_list calls. Your members without a location etc will then not show up, no-one will find them, they won't log in, they don't take up space, they are just inactive accounts.

I don't know what the figures are now, but in 2013 Business Insider reckoned that of 883 million Twitter accounts 651 million were inactive. Twitter doesn't waste energy deleting accounts that haven't entered a location or logged in for 5 years, those accounts just don't get listed anywhere or seen by anyone.

Using Jamroom

That is the problem with putting up barriers to easy signup - you get a lot more people who don't complete the sign up process.

Wouldn't it be better to make the signup really easy, then not list or reduce features on profiles which haven't entered your extra required info?

Using Jamroom

Users just click on the link and their account is activated. They don't need to enter anything else to complete registration.

Using Jamroom

It's very simple - you click on them, drag them to where you want, then drop them.

Chapters are the caategories you put the docs into.

Try making 3 or 4 empty pages and play around with it for a few seconds. I'm sure you will understand it all then.

How to use the Terms of Service Module? Documentation does not seem complete


Using Jamroom

You can name the pages whatever you like. Name them the same or name them differently.

Just like it says in the docs, you must set the page to be visible on the Main Site. That is why you can't see your terms page on your admin profile.
