Add a email for rejected users Zikula 1.2.8  Bottom

  • Anyone have a solution to send a rejection email when the account has been denied access and deleted?

    The system does send a accepted email, so it looks like the code is there, and could be moved to accommodate this feature?
  • This would probably involve messing with the Users module. It looks like the changes you want would need to be made to finishnewuser(). You would want to override the switch statement for options 11 or 12 and then use the Mailer module.


    Why send a rejection email vs. what the system does now, just post the information or the site?

  • I've decided to verify each account. When a new user creates an account there is a password sent back to them letting then know the account is being verified. If I decide to delete the account, they keep trying the user name and password that was sent. Seems to me it would be easier to just automatically send a rejection letter instead of then keep trying to use the authentication that was sent, and then a posting feedback to me telling me they can't get in.
  • I don't think this would be hard to add. It would just be a matter of digging into the Users code as I outlined above.

    Zikula does nothing when you deny a user registration, except deletes the account. Wouldn't it just be common sense to choose to, or not to send an e-mail to the user informing them their application was rejected, it's just rude to purge a users account with no notification of any kind.

    On top of that, the administrator has to deal with e-mails from users that have been denied access wanting to know why they are unable to get access to the site.
  • Bumping this back up to see if there is any capable programmer out there that can get this completed.

    Is it possible that I might have to switch CMS platforms in order to have this option?
  • This seems certainly doable without too great an effort. Are you talking about ZK 1.2 or 1.3? Catch me on Skype sometime or send me mail ...
