Pending Pilots - VACentral Score Calculation

phpVMS Legacy Add-Ons (v2/v5) General Support
1

Hi

We have an issue when a new pilot signs up on our website their account automatically gets created in PHPVMS.I have checked the following lines in both local.config.php & app.config.php

Automatically confirm pilots?

Config::Set(‘PILOT_AUTO_CONFIRM’, false);

We would like it so that the new account only actually gets created once an admin has clicked “accept registration” in the admin panel.

Any help please ?

Thanks

Unfortunately it can’t be done. Where is your problem exactly? I mean, what do you need that? If your problem is the ability for the pilot to login before he gets accepted, there is a solution for this. We can find alternatives too.

Hi

Thanks for your reply.

The problem lies with our VA ranking on VACentral.

If a new pilot signs up then the account is automatically created and if he only gets round to flying a few days after signing up or we only accept him at a later date, then VACentral will consider him a non flying pilot and this effects our ranking score.

In the database there is an extra column for the status of the pilot (accepted or not). I think that David should consider it during the score calculation. I am transferring the topic to the vacentral board so that David can see it and do any changes if he finds it useful.

By default, as soon as a pilot registers, a new entry is inserted on the pilots database table. As a result, there is not anything we can do for this except if you change the way your pilots register on your system but this requires some extra developing.

Hi David

Any news on this?

I am not sure what I am going to do with the entire ranking system, it seems there are more complaints then ever. It may entail an entire rewrite on my part.
