Hi!,
​
I've created a Joomla registration form with CFv7. The user is correctly saved, but I haven't understand how get the activation link and token and how create the activation page.
​
Anyone can help me?
​
Thank's

Same here, in CF4 there was an option in the "Joomla User Registration" action, but cannot make this work in CF7 "Save User" action

help is appreciated

Hi Peter, I've solved the problem.

In the "Save User" action, if success, I've put a read data action to the users table ("read_data_act", model name "atoken"), with the condition "username = save user username",

then i sand a mail to the user with an activation link like this:

https://www.site.com/registrationform.html?chronoform=nameform&gpage=activate&token={var:read_data_act.atoken.activation}

so the link has the joomla generated token and go to a form page ("activate") where i've a read action to the user table with the condition "activation = data:token}" and a save action (if success) that delete data token and set the filed "params" to {"activate":0}

Hi Pigna,

Thanks for the reply. I can use this method to retrieve the Activation string without code change!

But now I ran into the next problem is that I wanted to use the native Joomla registration method (as with the CF4 version) like:
.."?task=registration.activate&token=" and the native Joomla doesn't allow for dashes, underscores etc in the activation code.
(See the J4 RegistrationController.php -> $token = $input->getAlnum('token');)
so I had to change the CF7 generated 'activation' string (by "\G3\L\Str::uuid()" and remove the '-' characters

But maybe I'm missing something..

Hi Peter,

what is the full url of the native joomla activation ?

I can edit the action file to change the token to be without "-" and include this in a new update to v7

Hi Max,

Activation token without '-' would be nice to comply with J4 default!
Just saw CF8 is available, will start using it tonight and let you know!

thanks

Thank you, the new 7.0.11 update has the activation token fix
