User Activation #10060

I am confused about the user email confirmation/activation process. The terminology used through is (although not completely) is user/email activation. When creating a new user, there is an option to send a activation email. And on the account module, there is a an Email Activation page where a user can put in their email address to have an activation link sent to their email address. Yet the link is to the /account/confirm-email route, not 'activate'.

However, the underlying process is not about 'activation'. A user can be added to a tenant and can log in straight away without 'activating' their account via the received email.

All this 'activation' seems to do is confirm their email address (yet incrorrectly termed as 'activate' IMHO), but it does not prevent access until they have activated their account/email (which is what is meant 'activate' IMHO).

Is the above by design? Is it email confirmation rather than user/email activation? Or am I missunderstanding how this process is designed to work.

I need to have the process that when a user registers or is added to the system they cannot login until they have activated their account via email the email link.

Can you point me in the right direction as to how this can easily be implemented?

Thanks, J

    Hi @jaycee26

    You are right, it is about confirming the email. The related pages named differently. If you go to settings page, you can enable/disable "Email confirmation required for login." setting under the user management tab.

    Thank you! Not sure how I missed that option, but that works as required.

    Thanks, J
