1: Subsite registration question
Posted by C. R. Oldham on 11/03/03 07:57 PM
Greetings,

I'm experimenting with subsites on a 5.0 cvs checkout.

If a user registers on the main site, do they automatically become a member of the subsite?  Is this behaviour configurable?

What about the other way around?  If a user registers on a subsite, the user doesn't automatically become a member of the main site, correct?

This thread:

Seems to indicate that registration is not subsite aware at all.  If so, then is there an (easy) way for me to require approval for users on the main site, but have joining a subsite be open?

I believe there's a constraint that *requires* subsite members to also be members of the main site. The registered users group.

So, a subsite member must first be a main site member.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.
