  • How'd you do it?

    I just looked at http://www.muddyrivermedia.org/ and it looks great. What an awesome idea!

    Quick question - how did you do the rotating image "Featured Media" banner in Drupal? I'd like to do something similar on our church website and if there is a module I can use that would save alot of time.

    Thanks!

  • New users added to site with crazy usernames

    I've been running our church website on Drupal for 3 months now and it is working great! [p.s. thanks to your podcast and forum for the great help in getting things going!]

    I've been monitoring the Admin logs, and notice that every day or so there is a new user registering for the site with a crazy username
    - i.e. New user: TkIsfsWwyhRHGRm (yacasi@witzwil.cn)

    I have "Require e-mail verification when a visitor creates an account" checked, so can I assume that this is a valid email address, and that they replied to the invitation email? All of them seem to have .cn domain names. When I check the User status, the last access for them is never, so I just go and delete them.

    I suppose I could change the User Setting to "Visitors can create accounts but administrator approval is required", but I would rather not do this if I don't have to.

    So I have some questions:
    1) Have these users passed "Require e-mail verification" ?
    2) If not, is there an automatic way to delete users that haven't verified email after say a few days?
    3) If they have passed, could this be a Spambot? Any ideas (short of administrator approval) how to eliminate them?

    Thanks for your help!
