- *******************************************************
- 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.
