README.txt for logintoboggan.module for Drupal
|
|
*******************************************************
|
|
|
|
Co-developed by Jeff Robbins (jjeff) and Chad Phillips (hunmonk) with several
|
|
features added by Raven Brooks (rbrooks00).
|
|
|
|
The Login Toboggan module improves the Drupal login system in an external
|
|
module by offering the following features:
|
|
|
|
1. Allow users to login using either their username OR their email address.
|
|
2. Allow users to login immediately.
|
|
3. Provide a login form on Access Denied pages for non-logged-in
|
|
(anonymous) users.
|
|
4. The module provides two login block options: One uses JavaScript to
|
|
display the form within the block immediately upon clicking "log in".
|
|
The other brings the user to a separate page, but returns the user to
|
|
their original page upon login.
|
|
5. Customize the registration form with two e-mail fields to ensure
|
|
accuracy.
|
|
6. Optionally redirect the user to a specific page when using the
|
|
'immediate login' feature.
|
|
7. Optionally redirect the user to a specific page upon validation of their
|
|
e-mail address.
|
|
8. Optionally display a user message indicating a successful login.
|
|
9. Optionally combine both the login and registration form on one page.
|
|
10. Optionally display a 'Request new password' link on the user login form.
|
|
11. Optionally have unvalidated users purged from the system at a pre-defined
|
|
interval
|
|
(please read the CAVEATS section of INSTALL.txt for important information
|
|
on configuringthis feature!).
|
|
|
|
Users who choose their own password can be automatically assigned to a selected
|
|
'non-authenticated' role. This role could have more permissions than anonymous
|
|
but less than authenticated - thus preventing spoof accounts and spammers. The
|
|
user will only be removed from the non-authenticated role and granted
|
|
authenticated permissions when they verify their account via a special email
|
|
link, or when an administrator removes them from the non-authenticated role.
