I want to disable the requirement for new users to verify through email, mostly because my server does not have sendmail and my sendgrid account has a limited number of emails that can be sent each month. I know I probably will not surpass this limit on my forum (for a long, long time), but I want to use that account for other things as well and I’m afraid it will all add up. Is it possible to automatically activate new users so that activating via email is no longer required, and then also disable the activation email? Even if it is not important now, this could be useful later, so if this is not yet possible, could someone let me know and I’ll recategorize this under features? If it is possible, please be as descriptive as possible.

[תמונה] sulliops: @angelim, you developed that plugin, so could you look at this issue? Whenever I use your plugin, I cannot access the Settings > Plugins page. It just says that there was an error, nothing else. However, when I disable the plugin it works fine. That plugin has been abandoned https://meta.discourse.org/t/enabling-instant-user-activation/9833/16?u=mittineague

Oh, that sucks… I guess I’ll delve into the code later. Thanks for the info though.

[תמונה] watchmanmonitor: There are a number of reasons to want to skip the email activation, but those typically have to do with a single-sign-on or closed environments. I have this scenario. I want to disable the email activation in discourse because I am using Wordpress for SSO (single-sign-in) so now the users have to validate twice, and that is poor customer experience. How can I remove the activate email requirement in discourse? Also, @itsbhanusharma I have noticed that you have responded to multiple threads regarding SSO loops and maybe you are familiar with a solution to my issue here? Help from anyone is greatly appreciated. Thanks so much. NOTE: Just two clarify to other users that may be looking at this, please make sure you are following proper security protocols to avoid making your site vulnerable. The only reason I am doing this is because I have SSO activated through Wordpress and Wordpress is doing the email verification in addition to that I also disabled public registrations meaning that the only way to create an account is through Wordpress. the setting is by invite only. See below: [תמונה]

There is a way to do that, @simon has mentioned that in another topic. If I find it, I’ll edit this reply with a link to that topic. Edit: [תמונה] How to Deactivate the Discourse Activation Email WordPress Unless the default WordPress New User Notification email is sent as a part of your WordPress registration process, the plugin sets the SSO parameter require_activation to true. There is a hook that you can use to bypass this. The hook is called discourse_email_verification. It passes two parameters: $require_activation - whether or not the email address has been validated by WordPress $user - the WordPress user object If you want to disable email validation for all users, then you don’t need …

Thanks so much for your help @itsbhanusharma! I will try to implement this and see how it works. I appreciate your help. Also, do you know if there I a way to make all this work with 2FA (2-factor authentication)? I have 2FA enable for administrators only, but it creates a loop and admins cannot log in to wp-admin. All other users work fine. When I disable 2FA for the admins then they can sign in to back-end no problem. The 2FA is being implemented through iThemes security.

[תמונה] RickU: I want to disable the email activation in discourse because I am using Wordpress for SSO (single-sign-in) so now the users have to validate twice, and that is poor customer experience. How can I remove the activate email requirement in discourse? If users register through the default WordPress registation system, they should not be being forced to respond to the Discourse activation email when they first login to Discourse. If users register through a front-end registration system, they will have to respond to the Discourse activation email. If you are going to disable this, you need to be certain that your user’s email addresses are being verified when they register on your WordPress site.

Thank you so much for your help.

[תמונה] simon: egistation system Awesome, thanks so much for your help @simon . I will have to check what is going on, because the way that I have is: user create account at mysite.com or login user receives activation email user gets access to the site when user click on the discourse.mysite.com they are still being presented receiving a screen from Discourse saying we send you an email please activate your account. IF user goes directly to discourse.mysite.com and it is not logged in user gets re-directed to mysite.com/login or register for new account and then circle back to #1. I tries creating multiple accounts with different email addresses that I have and I am being presented each time with that screen.. maybe there is a setting I am missing. But in order for users to get access to my wp site they are already require to validate their email. Additionally, I have it set up where when anyone types or click on discourse.mysite.com if they are not logged in it takes them to mysite.com/login.

Anyone have this working currently? We’re inviting known members to our system and they’ve already signed up (opted in) to receive updates from us. We’re trying to get 100% away from our mailing list software and use only Discourse. The mailing list software is SimpleLists and it DOES NOT allow them to confirm or do anything else before they start getting emailed notifications. It’s just a mailing list, but in order to ditch it, we need to make sure that when we post to certain sub/categories, they get those notices by email. We’ve solved the notification part for existing users, but they have to have activated their account to be an active user (to receive those sub/category topic notice emails). We want to just import the users, have it assign passwords and email them (password or a link to enable it). Then they’re activated at that point and will receive the appropriate notices by email automatically. Possible?
