Enabling self-registration

Edit online

Allow anyone to request accounts from the Faspex login page. You must ensure that proper security settings have been put into place before allowing self-registration.

Self-registration relieves the workload of admins and managers. The self-registration feature is turned off by default.

New user accounts inherit the permissions of the configured template user and automatically becomes a member of designated workgroups. To configure the template user, go to Accounts > Pending Registrations and click the template user link.

Warning: If self-registration is enabled, a user can use it to find out whether a certain account exists on the server. If a user attempts to self-register a duplicate account, then the user receives a prompt stating that the user already exists.
  1. Go to Security > Account registration and enable self-registration.
  2. Choose whether to require approval for account registration.

    If you allow self-registration, use the Approval required setting for security purposes. An admin or manager must approve or deny the account before the user can log in. For more information on approving or denying accounts, see Approving or denying pending registrations.

    If you choose to require approval, you can choose which users are notified through email of a new request.
    Note: These email addresses are not validated against existing Faspex admins or managers, but only admins and managers can approve account requests.
  3. If you choose to require approval, you can also configure these settings:
    Configuration Description
    Terms of service If text is set, Faspex requires users to accept the terms of service in order to register an account.
