New user defaulted to REPORTER?

Post by gordonisnz »

Hi, ive advised one of my friends to register for mantis (hosted on my domain)

Today, I see they've registered and are automatically assigned as a REPORTER.

what if someone randomly finds my mantis site & registers.. ?? spammers?

QUESTION: if a person joins my Mants, how do i set the default status as user (Is there a level BELOW that so they cant see ANYTHING until i manually assign them an upgrade?)

now, ive got 2 projects running,

QUESTION: if a new person joins, as "reporter" - how do i know they dont have access as reorter to both projects? (they are unrelated projects)

Ive been to the manage users area & other screes & cannot see any 'defaults'.

MantisBT Version 2.25.4
Schema Version 211
PHP Version 7.4.10
Database Driver mysqli

You have a few options here, first to set the default level when signing up:
$g_default_new_account_access_level = REPORTER;
You also can disallow signup, one should contact you for an account to be created:
$g_allow_signup = ON;
If someone has Reporter level, then this is valid for all public projects.
So if you want to avoid that, you need to make your projects private and allocate users specifically to a project.
Lots of options here :mrgreen:
