Hi,

When a new user registers they get to the page that sends the email verification. Problem is while they are waiting for that email to arrive they can no longer browse the website.

Is there any way to change that?

Thanks

Thanks

If I turn that off am I inviting spam.

As I typed that it occurred to me that if I have approve user turned on that I can still prevent unwanted people from posting while not restricting someone from the site until they are approved.

Correct?

Yes, MK if you check Mandatory approve, then you can more or less control who joins your website.
