Hi All,
I didn't realize until recently that Mystic included the ability to do email based auto-validation of user accounts. Unless I'm missing something, I can't seem to find any good documentation on how to get
this configured. Anyone have this going successfully?
Cheers,
Mike
Hey Mike, I am using it here. I posted on fsxNet a pretty detailed setup but
I will also post it here in case some don't have access to fsxNet..
Ok here goes.. I have mine setup in prelogin.mnu in the option for FIRSTCMD I added in the following lines after the Send Node Message Command
Command Access Data
(GD) Display a File S10|S15 emailvalidate
(-V) Validate Email address S10|S15 20
That's it,, what this does is displays emailvalidate a text file from the text directory.
Then, it checks access if the access level is 10 through 15 it will then send them to validate the email address by sending a email with a code in it for them to enter when the BBS asks for it. If the code is correct it bumps their access level up to 20 which on my board is validated.
That's all there is too it.. It's a pretty simple mod. As I said on fsxNet,
the menu system on Mystic is a lot more powerful then people think. You can
do things with it that are unreal. I literally created a Theme which mimics
the Commodore 64 BBS program Image BBS (I have been involved with Image BBS since it's inception in 1988 and am currently writing v3.0 with a colleague) and I did all of the theme via the menus...
Anyways, if you have any questions just ask...
