  Hi Felipe
  I'm testing last version of the plugin on Moodle 3.3, I installed it carefully following your INSTALL tutorial.
  Here is the problems along the procedure:
  
  1) after I registered an account I get a page that says: "Tried to send you an email but failed! Click for more info" and the info page is this: https://docs.moodle.org/33/en/error/auth_emailadmin/auth_emailadminnoemail
  That's bad for the user
  
  2) anyway the email arrives to the admin user but before the right message "Hi Moodle Admin ..." it says: "No admin found based on notification strategy. Please check auth_emailadmin configuration".
  
  3) I tried, as user, to login though the admin doesn't enable me and I get message "You need to confirm your account - An email is sent to you email address ...". That's bad for the user that will not receive any confirm email.
  
  4) Admin user enables user by clicking on the email link, that works good and the welcome email is sent to user but it's not translated in my language (already tried to purge cache)
  
  Hope this helps and you can help me, Thanks

  Hi Felipe,
  I was wondering if it would be possible to add someone to the list of admins who has limited access to the entire site. I'd like to have an assistant who would just check that the requested person is allowed on the site, but who wouldn't change content or create courses. Is it possible to have this plug-in email other roles, or would it work to create a custom "admin" role? Do you know which capaibilty settings have to be allowed ofr the role/user to show up in the admin list?
  Thanks

  Hi Aaron,
  
  It's not possible right now. The idea of pointing to a role instead of choosing the users right onto the plugin config is interesting. I'll consider it.
  
  Best regards,
  Felipe

  Hello,
  
  Apologies if I missed an answer on this already - in manual accounts, I have set the 'password duration'. How do I do that as well for accounts created with email-based self-registration with admin confirmation?
  
  Thanks for your time!

  Hi Jessica,
  
  Neither self-registration plugins support that feature. But you could achieve it by adding another plugin, like https://moodle.org/plugins/view.php?plugin=auth_pwdexp
  
  Best regards,

  Hi Felipe, first of all, thank you so much! This is really useful.
  
  I need to create two different registration paths, one for teachers and one for students. The teachers' registration need to be confirmed by the admin. The students do not.
  
  I was thinking of creating two links to /login/signup.php on the login page. Something like /login/signup.php?teacher=No
  
  How can I trigger this plugin for teachers, but not for students?

  Hi Riddel,
  
  I don't think you can do that. Moodle only allows you to select one auth plugin for self-registration. It doesn't feel straightforward to trick it into allowing a different registration path.
  
  What you could do is to plug a script into a mail server that would receive the registration request and look for a profile field saying if it's a student or a teacher then execute appropriate actions.
  
  You'll want to make it assign specific roles depending on the user type, else students would have the same rights as teachers.
  
  Hope that helps.

  If an auth plugin was able to call another plugin directly, I can imagine a special auth plugin that serves as router and role assigner based on some criteria like your user type... I can see some use to that...

  Hi All, I am facing one issue with this plugin. Everything works fine till the email notification. But the users are confirmed before the admin confirms the account. I have both email based self registration and email based self registration with admin confirmation enabled in my site.
  Thanks.

  Hi kamatchi ,
  
  Did you select this plug in for self-registration? Check the INSTALL file to see how.
  
  Let me know if that helps.
  
  Best regards,
  Felipe

  Yes Felipe, I did exactly the same settings. Its working fine in my staging environment. I am facing this issue only in production. Users automatically confirmed and the confirmation mails are also sent. Just wondering how this is happening. Is there any other configuration i needs to check?

  Hello Tim, I certainly do plan to do it. But upgrading my moodle broke it horribly, so I'm waiting for an opportunity to solve that blocker before adding the compatibility info to the plug in.
