URGENT Email verification/confirmation

    I have not found help to make that when a new user registers (either seller or buyer) the system closes the session until he enters with the password that is sent to the email.
    Yesterday, malicious users entered one of my sites and created dozens of fake accounts (with emails that do not exist) and bought ALL the items in which there was 1 in stock. So they destroyed the site in just a few minutes.
    I don′t understand how the system is not configured by default to close the session and wait for them to confirm the email. Without that function the free version of the plugin is completely useless and insecure. Don’t you think?
    Can you give me an urgent solution please ASAP? With this bad experience with the free version I can’t imagine ever wanting to buy the pay one.
    Thank you

  • Hello @arxroma ,

    I understand this is been hard & concerning for you.

    However, the registration process is not handled via Dokan. This is completed via WordPress & WooCommerce only. The settings to send password to email is also controlled via WooCommerce > Settings > Accounts & Privacy.

    If you have a problem with this procedure you can contact WooCommerce support.

    I am a little bit confused with your case because if the email does not exist they will not get a password & without a password, they will not be able to log in. After the registration, you are not logged in yet. I just tested to be confirmed.

    Also, Dokan Lite does not have email verification for the seller. It is on Dokan Pro.

    You may want to disable the guest checkout option as well – https://prnt.sc/vp2c16

    I hope I was able to clear the confusion.

    Thank you ??

    Hello friend, thanks for the reply.
    I understand you but I think I have not explained myself very well, I will try to clarify the situation:
    When someone registers WC send the password by mail, that’s perfect. The fault of WC is that it keeps the session open, so the user can interact without confirming it. To solve this there are codes and plugins (I use for example ”User Registration” plugin) that allow to keep the user pending approval, that is not a problem for me.

    Maybe what you don′t know is that the problem comes when they register through the Dokan form, Dokan automatically assigns them a profile and overlays my codes or plugins. So I cannot control that a user registers and can do damage without even confirming the email or even better, remain pending approval..
    If it is not possible to solve this I would like a code that completely disables the Dokan registry to make it manual. It′s not what I would like but I don′t see another solution.
    Do you understand me now my friend?
