Is their any contribution or any way of implimenting email validation on member signup. I am getting lots of fake accounts being opened up and i feel this would be a good way to cut it down.

 

Many Thanks

The feature you're after is in-built already.

 

Admin >> Configuration >> E-Mail Options >> Verifiy E-Mail Addresses Through DNS

You can alter the e-mail configuration details (address and name) from your Admin >> Configuration section.

 

Also, the way I read your first e-mail was that you wanted to verify that the e-mail actually existed. Not that you wanted to send the person a 'Validation E-mail". For this function, you will need to download the following contribution:

Signup Confirm E-mail

Thanks very much for your help, i have got a store up and running using osc but i have been working on a new version with updated graphics etc...

 

This is the new one i am working on, does anyone have ideas for the centre box on the main page. TheModHouse.co.uk/storeI would either like to try and make a header the same as my boxes if i can work out where to add it or something totally different, maybe individual boxes.

 

 

Many Thanks
