Email Validation
Email Validation (based on emailval.js v0.2 by tracker1) is a simple script that, when enabled,
requires a user to validate their email address by entering a validation code that the system has e-mailed to them.
Upon successful validation, the user's security level is updated, allowing for more access privileges.
Install
Set email_validation = true in the [logon] section of your ctrl/modopts.ini file.
Configure
The e-mail validation module supports the following configuration options in the [emailval] section of the ctrl/modopts.ini file:
| Option | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| level_before_validation | 50 | Security level of unvalidated users |
| level_after_validation | 60 | Security level of validated users |
| flags1_after_validation | no change | Flags (from flags set 1) to give, add-to, or remove-from validated users |
| flags2_after_validation | no change | “ ” (from flags set 2) |
| flags3_after_validation | no change | “ ” (from flags set 3) |
| flags4_after_validation | no change | “ ” (from flags set 4) |
| exemptions_after_validation | no change | Exemptions to give, add-to, or remove-from validated users |
| restrictions_after_validation | no change | Restrictions to give, add-to, or remove-from validated users |
| expiration_after_validation | false | If true, leave or extend the user account expiration date. If false, set validated users to not expire |
| expiration_days_after_validation | no change | If expiration_after_validation = true, the days to extend the user's expiration date, once validated |
Note:
The flags, exemptions, and restrictions .ini values support 'A' through 'Z' with the optional '+' (add) and '-' (remove) modifiers.
e.g. “+A-B” to add the A flag and remove the B flag
e.g. “AB” to change the flag set to just “AB”
Numeric values are supported for assignment (not modification).
e.g. 0 = no flags, 1 = A, 2 = B, 4 = C, 8 = D, etc.
