Plugin that adds "Activate account" permissions so that non-admins can activate users.

Installation

To install Activate Users, follow these steps:

1. Download & unzip the file and place the activateusers directory into your craft/plugins directory
2. -OR- do a git clone https://github.com/billythekid/activateusers.git directly into your craft/plugins folder. You can then update it with git pull
3. -OR- install with Composer via composer require billythekid/activateusers from your site root (the same directory your craft folder is in)
4. Install plugin in the Craft Control Panel under Settings > Plugins
5. The plugin folder should be named activateusers for Craft to see it. GitHub recently started appending -master (the branch name) to the name of the folder for zip file downloads.

Activate Users Overview

This plugin adds a user permission to allow users to activate users. This is normally done by admin accounts only but sometimes you want a "semi-admin" account without full admin privileges to be able to do this. When a user has this permission set and is viewing another user's dashboard page, the option to activate that user will appear in their "cog" menu.

Configuring Activate Users

This plugin has no configuration options. Just install it and give the users (or user groups) that you want to be able to activate users that permission.

Using Activate Users

Non-admin accounts with the permission should visit an unverified/not yet activated account in the dashboard. Here they can choose to activate the user by way of the "cog" menu (at the top right in a full/desktop view)

Activate Users Roadmap

There are no plans to add more features to this plugin.
