New Users are unlocked - i want them to be locked...

Hi Timo,

It should be sufficient to set the following setting to blank (empty string) :

[UserSettings]
VerifyUserType=

in an override of site.ini.

The freshly registered user won't be notified through email, and its account will remain disabled.

You may want the website's administrator to be notified when a new user registers, to make sure all of them are taken care of. You may want to check the following settings for this, still in site.ini :

[UserSettings]
RegistrationFeedback=
RegistrationEmail=

Let us know,
Cheers,

Hi Timo,

On a 4.2 version, take a look at kernel/user/register.php l.199 to l.252, you'll notice it is possible to create a custom activation handler, to which all user activation-related behaviour is delegated. It should among other avoid running the following code, where user account activation takes place :

if ( eZOperationHandler::operationIsAvailable( 'user_activation' ) )
                {
                    $operationResult = eZOperationHandler::execute( 'user',
                                                                    'activation', array( 'user_id'    => $userID,
                                                                                         'user_hash'  => $hash,
                                                                                         'is_enabled' => false ) );
                }
                else
                {
                    eZUserOperationCollection::activation( $userID, $hash, false );
                }

The return value of the 'verifyUser()' method in your custom handler (see how to plug it in in site.ini l.413 to 425) lets you control whether the registration email should be sent or not.

Let us know how it goes,
Cheers,
