Description Jarrad Whitaker 2010-08-14 08:16:18 CEST
Hi,

I've tried to sign up to the XFCE forums three times in the past six months: each time I get the "wait for admin approval" auto email, and then nothing. It's not going in to my spam box. I'd check to see if others can register, but not being registered, I can't use the search function (was going to list members by join date).

Is this an oddity or is something up here? Maybe SMF is sending emails to the wrong admin address?

Kind regards from my wonderful XFCE/debian desktop,
Jarrad Whitaker

come on guys, this was two weeks ago. I understand if you don't have the time to be constantly supervising the forum, but you should at least recognize that reality and not do silly things like configuring it in a way that requires your constant attention!

Hello Jarrad,

The problem is that the person in charge of the forum literally disappeared without any warning and I don't know if someone else has access to the current install.

Nick?

Cheers,

Jérôme

I didn't even knew we maintained our own installation and the access approval is just stupid. Will look at this this weekend.

Ok, approval is disabled, you should have received a link to confirm/activate your account and then you are ready to go. Sorry for the trouble.

brilliant :)
Sorry to hear about the missing webmaster, that must be a royal pain in the---. Thanks for fixing this up nonetheless. :)
