What exactly was the issue with your verification system?
Currently the emails get out. At least I can see people creating accounts and posting stuff.
but if the user has any posts
They are unverified, they can't have posts.
If the user has no posts you may need to delete from the database directly for now.
Do you know by any chance how to do this in a clean way, because I tried and there have been restovers.
Like normal people! :D
Go to another instance, if you find something interesting, copy the link and paste it to the search field of your instance. After that federation starts and you can post.
There must be at least one person doing this, because otherwise ALL wouldn't contain anything from other instances.
But it's a little bit sad, that you've never done this and only look at all. It means you watch only stuff other people on your instance have seen but you don't get further.
Yes, that's exactly what I described with the issue, that a lot of other features will be deactivated too, because there is only one button for everything.
But if you know it: How exactly do I deactivate the "All Feed" to not pollute my server and avoid distractions to the users, but let them comment on external posts, without having the complete post on my instance and let external people comment on posts on my instance?
Thanks for your help.
Well, it is playing around with the db 😀 ... and it could even destroy the whole instance if people don't see the warning I've posted there.
I found a solution here
A warning to people who have the same problem:
On the website there is a command, which will purge all unverified account. If your admin account wasn't verified, it will be purged, too.
Thanks a lot for your help :)
How exactly? The recommendations of other people here didn't work.
EDIT: Found a solution. Check other posts to see how it works.
After executing docker exec -it lemmymydomain_postgres_1 psql
I've got the error:
psql: error: connection to server on socket "/var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432" failed: FATAL: role "root" does not exist
omg... why would you work for a company like this? Working with shitty technology all day could lead to depression.
You just go directly to the user’s page, and from there you can do things like ban/delete/purge.
I've created a test account, but emails didn't work to verify and now I have an account I can't resend verification and there isn't a purge button.
How exactly do you purge a user?
