| New user applies for access posted on: 8/28/2002 2:53:09 PM How long does it take, from the time a user signs up and applies for access to a forum, before the application shows up in the "Members waiting for approval" list for moderators?
Thanks in advance,

As soon as you sign up. I have a few more options to add to the site concerning that feature.
I am thinking about having it show up on the whole society somewhere to show how many members are waiting for approval, because you don't always go into your Control Panel. But if it shows on your forum, then you will see it when you come to the site.

Wow, thanks for the fast reply 
I'm not sure I phrased the question right though.
I just created a Society, and created a forum, he made an account and applied for access to the forum.
How long does it take before I can see his application and approve it?
Thanks in advance,

mmmm...ikes. Hope ya figure out whats wrong. let me ask ya a question:
1) wizard- is it possible to have more then one account for the forums on one ip address
ops- if he says no then that would be the problem :-) hehe.
Might not be of any help, but I know some forums dont allow any more then 1 account per address. mmmm...as for the one thing you were thinking about wizard, you should go with that. Because frankly I may not always be checking the control panel to see if i got new members but I might check the message boards everyday. So to speed up their aproval time that would be great. all ya need to do is put at the top of the page "Users needing approval X" X being the number of people needing approval and make that number a link to the approval page. It would be short and right to the point and not take up much space on the webpage :-). Course that is totally up to you :-).
Hope you 2 figure out the problem. See ya around.

You can have as many accounts as you want per IP. We don't keep much track of the IP's because AOL only has 10.
