Prevent sending password to customer upon registration?

[Ralf Skirr]

Hi,

I need a special set up where the customer can not get his password automatically after registration.

Password can only be sent to customer after manual approval of registration through shop onwner.

How would you do this?

Thanks,
Ralf

Why would I do this??
They set a pass upon sign up that won't work until you approve as you have it set

Perhaps try Configuration > Customer Details > Customer Approval Status - Authorization Pending
Customer must be Authorized to shop
0= Not required
1= Must be Authorized to Browse
2= May browse but no prices unless Authorized
3= Customer May Browse and May see Prices but Must be Authorized to Buy

I forgot about the add password field upon sign up.

More details:

This is an Amway shop and Amway has very strict rules. Nobody likes it, but it's their game, their rules.

- customer is not allowed to set his own password
- password must be created by admin and sent to customer manually

• So, I have to remove the field that allows to enter a password.
  
• And i have to stop the system from sending the welcome email with password.
  
• At the same time the email for later password retrieval must stay intact.

Both are not settable with default code

ZenCart uses a encrypted system for passwords and is set for the customer to enter/create their own

One would have to custom code to do what you want

I know how to do the manual password thing, it's messy, but it works.

Mostly i need the info about the email thing I explained above.

As by default passwords are not emailed as the customer creates their own one would hhave to create their own email setup for this

You need to consider security of any custom code you intend on using
