    Happy Friday to all!  After digging away I have come up empty and seeking a quick kick in the right direction!

    Where do NEW users sign-up to get an account?  I found the widget for signing-in, but not the actual “setup new user” screen link / page or whatever..

     

    I did try to cheat and find out using the “invite anyone” plug-in, but that doesn’t seem to be sending the emails out … another question, what if any special setups are required to get the mail flowing?

     

    Much appreciate the guidance!

    Best,

    Jimmy

    So this is interesting … I found a menu item for ‘User Sign-up’ and attached screenshot.  What is interesting is on my main page – I DO NOT see it, nor do I see the “text under slider” … is there a checkbox somewhere I am missing?

    Grateful for the guidance.

    User registration is controlled by WordPress.

    Login to the WP admin area, navigate to “Settings > General”, and make sure “Anyone can register” is checked.

    If you’re using WordPress in network mode, login to the WP admin area, navigate to “Super Admin > Options”, and under “Allow new registrations”, select any option but “Disabled”.

CBOX has its roots in the CUNY Academic Commons, which in turn was made possible through funding from The City University of New York itself.
