    membership activation process

    currently there are 2 ways for membership activation -
    1. On receiving new member application, automatically status to activated
    2. Manually approved by admin
     
    can we add one more way:
    3. Manually activated by the applicants themselve.
    - upon receiving the Application initiation e-mail, the applicant has to click an activation link in the email, or the applicant has to login using the user name and password to activate the account; after they finish the self-activation, they will receive a comfirmation email.

    I think I understand where you are coming from - it sounds like email verification is the biggest driver, correct?  

    We will make a note of this, though it's a pretty big change in the workflow and this is the first time we have received this particular request so it will be a while before we get to this - unless we get more requests of similar nature.

    Re: membership activation process

    There are reasons for doing this:

    At least the applicant can verify if they enter their email addreas correctly; also the applicant has to be serious enought to complete the registration; in addition, make sure admin can sent renewal/ event registeration/ news letters emails to members succefully in the future....

    Or if possible, we can add "Re-enter email " field in member data base, if the address is not the same, it won't allow to go to next step...can WA add this function?
