I have an issue, I disabled "Make entering an email address optional" by turning it ON. I want Emails to be mandatory and verified, so I need to disable this option. Every time I change the option to OFF and hit save, it reverts back to On.
I am running V1.0.1.
Is there a setting I can change in the DB I can change to force this? If so what table and value am I looking for?

Thanks in advance,
-Rap

Do you have email verification turned on?

I have tried it with email verification on. No verification and admin verification. Same result every time.

Go to admin->Database->Preferences Editor - from there you can delete the email entry, if I recall correctly the entry you are looking for should be: disable_emailcheck.

Actually I am looking for the setting that controls making the email address optional on the registration form.

Ok, I confirmed disable_emailcheck is the correct value. when I delete it it just comes back with the value set to 1. I don't even have to save the settings on the preference page, just refresh the DB preference editor page.

You can't make the email address optional if you have email verification activated.

I am trying to make the email address mandatory. Am I misunderstanding how this option works? If I set "Make entering an email address optional" to Disabled, doesn't that meant the email address is required?

I want the email address to be required and email verification set to on. I can't seem to do this because "Make entering an email address optional" is ALWAYS enabled.

Here is my screenshot.
Right now I have admin approval set, because I can't get the "Make entering an email address optional" to change to disabled.

Thanks for the help.

Run a fileinspector check to see if all the files are valid. There seems to be some strange issue on your preferences and I suspect either a conflicting plugin or a corrupted file to be the issue here.

- Are you running any third party plugins?

You might want to check your theme's directory for signup_template.php and rename it to something else if you find it.

@Rapitharian - Sorry, I got tied up and forgot about your issue.

As Moc said, run the file inspector and see if something is messed up.

@-BULL-: The setting won't save is the problem.

septor/Moc, No worries, I was just giving the thread a bump.

File inspector reports the following issue:
list_comment.php = 1kb

CaMer0n,
I don't have that file.

Try running the e107 debugger addon (google/wiki) on the preferences page. Then try changing the settings and scroll down to find error/warnings/notices related to your issue.

A few questions:

Did you have this install prior to upgrading to 1.0.1?

Can you try upgrading to 1.0.2 RC1 and see if it gets fixed?

Can you perform a fresh install of e107 (using v1.0.1 for now) in a different directory and see if the error remains?

I have been on E107 since before the 7.x days.
I can try the upgrade to 1.0.2 RC1.
I can also try the separate install.
I will update after I try each of these.
