To disable signup
Manage->Manage Configuration
Configuration option: allow_signup
Type: integer
Value: 0
To allow signup, but not giving rights to projects until you approve
Manage->Manage Projects
choose your project
set "View Status" to "private"
On the same page you have to assign by hand every new user to the projects you want.
Use "Add user to project"

There is no configuration option for it. You would have to change the source code to get it.
IMO the better approach is to set the default access level of new users to "Viewer" by adding the following line to config_inc.php
Code: Select all
$g_default_new_account_access_level = VIEWER;
and to give them higher access level if needed.

I am new to Mantis and do not have access to the source code.Can you do this via Configuration? If yes could you kindly provide more detailed instruction or screenshot please?
Using 1.2.15.
