Notifications of New Users Who Want to Contribute #30

Closed sheilabrennan closed 2 months ago

@patrickmj this may be more of a User Profile issue, not sure, but it relates to using the Contribution suite of plugins so I'm starting here.

Can the admins of that collecting site receive some type of notification -- an email or some dashboard flag/flash message that they have user requests that need approval?

Currently if new users are required to register before contributing (directed to register from the Contribution page), once they've confirmed their request, they get a flash message on the public site that they must wait for their account to be approved before contributing anything.

Also, I found that the newest users are listed last in the Users list making them hard to find, since there is no way to filter by date added or by active or not active, which is now an issue for people using Guest User + User Profiles with Contribution.

Ok, correction: email notifications are going out, I wasn't the admin on the site I upgraded. Now I am.

New question: can I as a site admin edit the text of those emails sent to users? Which plugin's files?

That would be in the GuestUser plugin. It seems like there are a couple different notification things going on here, so I'll try to break them into stories in jira
