isn't there a way I CAN ACTIVATE them without having to send them all an email? my partner sends them too many "Newsletters" already, i don't want to keep sending them stuff...

Re: how to ACTIVATE 300 members

Hi,

You can do this by updating table xxx_users, set level to 1 for these users.

I am not sure which systems you used before, but XOOPS uses MD5 encryption for passwords. If the previous system uses another encryption (or no encryption), their passwords will not work anymore.

ok, which field do i set to "1" - i see an actkey field that ends up holding the random string from the Webmaster's link. is that not necessary?

right, on the passwords. i ran them all through md5.

Re: how to ACTIVATE 300 members

The actkey field is only used when the user needs to activate the account. In this case you will activate the accounts for them so you can leave that field empty.

The field that needs to be be set to '1' is: level

gotcha - i really appreciate it.

i downloaded this to merely handle my user database and offer them a couple of mods, but i think this thing is AWESOME.

i have a script i need some minor work done to i can pay if you know where i might hire someone for some small work (it'd be quite easy, i know...)

let me know if you or someone would like to look at it and discuss a small fee...?

the site is here, (XOOPS is under Login and Calendar and Blog) >> http://www.luckytalentluckyfortune.com/

thanks

Re: how to ACTIVATE 300 members

XOOPS has a number of talented developers in its community who offer paid services. The best way to get attention for this is to start a new topic with something like:

Paid development: customized script

Describe the work you would like to have done to the script and ask them to contact you on a (spam proof) e-mail address or PM. You can discuss the details with the interested developers then.

Good luck!
