How to enable Email verificatiion
-
@Albus It keeps away known spammers, but not those targeting just your site for the sake of being annoying. But that's probably where someone builds the hellban plugin.

Working nicely.

I've enabled email verification through the admin panel - though I haven't verified if users can post without verification or not. I'll give ti a quick test.
In the mean time:
Admin > General Settings > User >"Require Email Confirmation"I cannot find that option. Early adopter of 0.4.3 . I see " Allow local log in " though.

I have it installed. But friends complained that they were not able to register. So had to put it down. No way to delete bots as a whole as well. Q & A would have helped, I guess. Now clicking rows of bots one by one and deleting them.

@a_5mith then would running commands to update to the latest commit solve the matter for @meetdilip ?

Ah ! Don't mention it. If not for @a_5mith , my site would be down trying to use the latest version.

@Albus Texhnically, yes. But that depends on whether he wants to risk running on master branch (not recommended for a live environment).
However this guide outlines the upgrade process. However with 0.5.0 just around the corner, it may be more beneficial to wait until then for the stability.
