Creating the Registration approval page

Previous topic Next topic JavaScript is required for the print function Mail us feedback on this topic!  

After registration to the page, users don't become members immediately. Instead, an e-mail is sent to them with the registration approval link. The link is leading to this page and contains the registration GUID in query string parameter. When the user clicks this link, the Registration e-mail confirmation web part on this page handles the registration approval request and the user becomes a member.

 

In order to for the page to be functional, you need to set its URL into E-mail confirmation page property of the Custom registration form web part, as described in this chapter.
