Allow (moderated) user registration via Web interface

Open HB9VQQ opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Would be helpful to have user registration as part of the website in order to submit Spots via Telnet or via a possible future web interface. #StopClusterSpam

Background

Too much BS on Clusters from anonymous users. Many sysops no longer accept anonymous submission of Spots and require Registration and individual Password prior to Spot submissions.

Registration Process:

  1. User enters Callsign in Field1
  2. User enters an email address in Field2 and hits submit
  3. Email sent to the sysop for user validation (Qrz.com etc)

Sysop validates the account and adds the user <set/register CALL> and sets password <set/password CALL password> then sends the User an email with username and password. User can then start to submit Spots via Telnet or via a possible future web interface.

Once the user is validated and has an Account, there are many new feature possibilities like a per-user web login where the user can set preferences like filters, change password, change email, a user chat, submit Spots via WebUI, etc.
