Verify/activate new accounts

Is there a way we can activate accounts after an admin has verified the user?
Right now, a user can register himself and the account is activated instantly.
I would like to be able to see which user has registered and activate (with a checkbox 'active') each user manually.

Is that possible?

See https://www.litecart.net/addons/129/customer-validation

Hello,

Thanks for taking the time implementing this.
I have installed a fresh copy of litecart and this VQmod but get this warning on the account registration page:

[color=#666666][font=Roboto, sans-serif]Warning:[/font][/color][color=#666666][font=Roboto, sans-serif] VQModObject::applyMod - Search not found in "Validate Customer Account": pages/create_account.inc.php(0) (SKIPPED) in [/font][/color][color=#666666][font=Roboto, sans-serif]~/vqmod/vqmod.php[/font][/color][color=#666666][font=Roboto, sans-serif] on line [/font][/color][color=#666666][font=Roboto, sans-serif]628[/font][/color]

After this, I get the message that the account awaits validation, but I can login in straight away.

Any idea what's causing this?

Thanks in advance (and a happy 2016:) )

There may be a bug or version incompatibility. Peek in the vqmod xml file what is the first rule for pages/create_account.inc.php and see why it doesn't match the code.

I'm using the latest version (1.3.3.1) of litecart.

The first rule seems to be a search and replace for 

$customer->data['status'] = 1;

But that doesn't exist in create_account.inc.php

I've noticed that 'users' have a 'status', but customers do not.
Could that be it?
(I've never worked with VQmod before)

That is correct. The line is unfortunately part of the coming 1.3.4. This add-on will have to be pulled back for version corrections. I will let you know when it's corrected.

Go ahead and try it now. I have refreshed the release and also uploaded Customer Status add-on for LiteCart 1.3.3.1.

Hi
This funktion is activated in 1.3.4 but is it a way to turn it off?
And if its on, if you have lots of new customer is there a easy to find only not activated customers?

Sorry sorting or filtering is currently not available, but it's definately something we could squeeze in for the next version.

Ok, thanks!

Btw, what did you mean by activated in 1.3.4? The only thing introduced in 1.3.4 is the possibility to disable a user. The customer status.

After update to 1.3.4 every new customers account is not activated, and wen the try to login first they get message to contact customer support.
Customer account is red in admin.
That why I want to find a easy way to find new customers, don't think they have to contact support to check ther account

Did your customers sign up through the checkout or the create account page? It is not intended to work the way you describe so I wonder if something wasn't wrapped up correctly.

Ok, by checkout.

In ctrl_customer.inc.php, try the following:

Find

public function reset() {

      $this->data = array();

      $fields_query = database::query(
        "show fields from ". DB_TABLE_CUSTOMERS .";"
      );
      while ($field = database::fetch($fields_query)) {
        $this->data[$field['Field']] = '';
      }
    }

Replace with

public function reset() {

      $this->data = array();

      $fields_query = database::query(
        "show fields from ". DB_TABLE_CUSTOMERS .";"
      );
      while ($field = database::fetch($fields_query)) {
        $this->data[$field['Field']] = '';
      }

      $this->data['status'] = 1;
    }

And...

In pages/ajax/checkout_customer.inc.php

Find

       $customer = new ctrl_customer();
        $customer->data = customer::$data;
        $customer->save();

Change to

       $customer = new ctrl_customer();
        foreach (array_keys($customer->data) as $key) {
          if (isset(customer::$data[$key])) $customer->data[$key] = customer::$data[$key];
        }
        $customer->save();

Which pretty much speaks for your problem.

Thanks Tim for help whit the error :)
