Hi, After googling a little bit I found 2 discussions in the xwiki mailing lists, It describes a need similar to yours. Hope it will help. http://lists.xwiki.org/pipermail/users/2005-December/000713.html http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/how-to-approve-new-xwiki-users-td502460.ht...

Howdy,
Is it possible to setup an XWiki such that:
- Users can register AND validate email. - After registration, users who have not been “approved” can only see one page that says “Please wait for approval for access to this wiki." - Approved users have normal access controls.
Right now I have removed all rights from the XWikiAllGroup and I manually move users into the XWikiRegisteredUsers group (maybe a bad name since all users are registered, it just means I approved them for access). The only problem with this setup is that new users cannot validate their email until I have added them to the XWikiRegisteredUsers group. I have not yet figured out how to control access to that special Email Authorization page.
Thanks for any info! Craig
