MyBB Community Forums

There is an issue when I set that users must be manually approved after they sign up.

The member fills out the information and a screen pops up to tell them they have confirm their email address.

The issue is when they go to their email address and click the link to confirm a message pops up telling them they have to be manually approved by admin... but the message only appears for like 1sec and redirects them to the main page!

How can I edit the redirect time so they can read whole message?

admin panel >> templates >> forum's active theme templates >> Ungrouped Templates >> redirect
find code similar to

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2;URL={$url}" />

change to

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="30;URL={$url}" />

I think we should change the time to 5 or 7 in mybb sources... 2 sec are too low

Thank you!

Also is there a way to edit the text in the redirect?

Specifically the font color.

Feel free to post a thread in Suggestions, but I think it's good as it is now and admins can easily change it if they want. This is not a bug, moving to Support.
