I have a very big multisite. And I got a request to enable option that multiple users can use the same email. I found a plugin "Allow Multiple Accounts" which doesn't work properly. I should figure out some other solution for that. I know that I could use something like adding +sometext to every email, so it will show different to Wordpress. Do you have some other solution, that can be done here?
If you have the multisite architecture, users can be shared beetween websites of network.
One user can be assigned to multiple sites.
Can the user sharing solve your problem?
There's a plug in called allow allow-multiple-accounts. Fair warning it hasn't been updated for more than two years but it just might work.

I am creating a wordpress site where i want to create accounts for the user but want to prevent users getting an email confirming there registration. Is there a way or a plugin that does this?
I have 2 possible solutions for you:
1) It's not for the faint of heart, but if you really want to you could try hacking the pluggables.php file in the includes directory. Keep in mind that updating Wordpress would nuke this.
I suspect it would involve modifying this function:
function wp_new_user_notification()
You can find it around line 1190 in pluggables.php.
2) Alternatively I know the old version of the Register-Plus plugin, included an option to disable user registration e-mail notifications.
Presumably the newer Register-Plus-Redux still offers similar functionality.
I'm making websites for a company where users have to "register" with names and a lot of different information to attend the event. (It's a video-event - info would be name, e-mail etc.)
I now got a Wordpress webpage, at the blanket doesn't necessary need to be on the site, but can open in a separate window.
I need to, somehow make it easy for admin to look at the users who registered, send them e-mails etc. Make a list of everyone who register, for the admin to see.
How would be the easiest way to do this?
I know how to make a form, and pull the information into the database..
Any good ideas, plugins or examples??
Thanks
Joomla comes in with mass emails, although I have not tried it.
Have You searched on Wordpress plugins? They may have what you are looking for.
Hello and thank you in advance!
I am setting up a site and it needs both a blog and a shopping cart. I would prefer to have them both have the same user database and session, so that if they log-in to one they log-in to the other. I was wondering if anyone has had experience with this and if they found that two specific platforms that worked well together or a single platform that fulfilled both roles well. The shopping cart doesn't need to be more than basic.
I was thinking of using magento and phpBB or Magento and wordPress but I am impartial to any specific platform.
Thanks again!
Oh and obviously it must use PHP and MySQL ;-)
Will the two software on the same domain ?
I have done this using opencart and wordpress and because it was on the same domain we can easily get the session.I just checked the session and accordingly I make user loggin at both the ends.
For eg : my site url was www.abc.com and blog at : www.abc.com/blog
Generally speaking, if you use two different software, you'll have :
two distinct user tables -- and two distinct databases probably (which is not a bad idea)
two distinct login mecanisms
But you could put some kind of Single Sign-on mecanism in place, so loging in on one also logs you on the other one.
This is not often done out of the box ; but there are sometimes plugins that will help you implement SSO.
There are often plugins for your forum or the blog to authenticate against a different system, be it LDAP or another database. They generally don't support it out of the box.
See Share login info between CMSs (Wordpress and phpBB) for an answer to a similar question.
I was considering using drupal to solve this problem, but not sure if it can be done with drupal.
I'm trying to implement access to content through points.
If the user does not have sufficient points, they should not be able to access the content
and as they access content, points get removed from their existing points
Can this be done with drupal?
This module is still in development, but it looks like the answer to your question: Userpoints Node Access. Maybe you can help the developer test and improve the module.
This sounds to me like simple access restriction that could be accomplished by using php/mysql to store user information, authenticate users and restrict access to the content based on how many points/credits they have left.
let the users log in, then when the user accesses the page query their account to see if they have any points left, if so then display the content and update their account to deduct points. One thing to think about with this though is some way to keep it from charging them multiple times for the same page.. They might get mad if they do something like refresh the page a couple times and get charged repeatedly :D
If on the other hand you also need a CMS to manage your content, it could get a little more difficult. I don't know of any that handle something like this.. You might end up writing a plugin or modifying the code by hand.
I've read a bunch of different things, none of which seem to be my situation. I have a site which uses a phpbb forum, and we also have multiple wordpress blogs which can use the database of phpbb via a plugin named wp-phpbb (can't post another hyperlink, but its at simplicitypoint dot com) . It works great for something that is on the same domain, like http://www.domaina.com/blog can access a blog at /forum on the same domain . Recently ( we are building a blog community) a new blog joined us that had his own domain name. I can get the plugin to install, and see the forum ucp.php and config.php as they are in teh same virtual directory, but phpbb will not redirect the login back to the server. If anyone can help me I would be SO grateful.
I have a basic understanding of programming and am very good with computers (I Work in IT) so hopefully I can help any follow up questions you may have. I also have a completely seperate testing area to try things out in first.
Thanks in advance!
Usually you can only do those things across one domain. The problem is probably the cookie for remembering the login is trying to be send across two domains, which the browser won't allow (following the cookie RFC). If that's not the problem, I would try a different wordpress plugin like http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/phpbbauth/
