- INSTALL.txt for logintoboggan.module for Drupal
- *******************************************************
- INSTALLATION:
- Place entire loggintoboggan module folder into
- (a) your sites/all/modules directory
- (b) your sites/[my site]/modules directory.
- Enable the module at Administration » Modules
- Configure logintoboggan settings at
- Administration » Configuration » System » LoginToboggan
- The module changes the functionality of the login block AND provides a new
- LoginToboggan logged in block'.
- Configure each block at Administration » Structure » Blocks as follows...
- 1. Configure the 'User login' block for LoginToboggan functionality:
- Change title if required; using <none> can make for a very neat login system,
- when combined with the javascript functionality: clicking upon "Login/register"
- reveals the login form in sliding fashion. To select this functionality, select
- 'Collapsible form' under "Block type". Selecting 'Link' under "Block type"
- sends user to a login form, returning them to original page after successful
- login.
- 2. Configure 'LoginToboggan logged in block'
- Tip: by leaving the title blank, the 'LoginToboggan logged in block' is slim
- and neat.
- Done!
- CAVEATS:
- 1. Use the 'Delete unvalidated users after' feature with extreme caution!
- This feature can be handy, but if misconfigured can cause unexpected damage
- to your user data -- specifically deleting users! Two things to guard
- against:
- a. Be very careful when editing the 'Non-authenticated role' setting.
- If you set it to anything other than the 'authenticated user' role,
- LoginToboggan will happily start deleting any users you have in that
- role that were created prior to the purge interval. If you want to
- avoid problems, it's best to never change that setting after you've
- initially set it up.
- b. LoginToboggan has mechanisms in place that prevent a user from being
- re-added to the Non-authenticated role after a user has been validated.
- Note that these protections are only present in core's interface -- if
- you have another module enabled which does any role manipulation
- (either via the user interface or programatically), you must find your
- own way to ensure that it doesn't add any users back into the
- Non-authenticated role.
- Also note that the feature is only enabled if the 'Set password' option is
- also enabled.
