  1. Go to : http://admin.socastsrm.com/account/membership
  2. Scroll to : Member Validation-Quick Sign Up
  3. Email Validation Reminder : Configure the frequency for sending an email reminder to users to validate their account. If set to "0" or left blank, it will disable validation reminders. The default is set to 7 days. Select one of the following options from the drop-down menu:
    1. Days (1 day = 24 hours per calendar day)
    2. Weeks (1 week = 7 days)
    3. Months (1 month = 30 days)

  4. Repeat Checkbox : If reminder is set to repeat, it will continue sending until the email is validated. The default is set to 'selected'

    Note

    Upon completion of sign up, the reminder schedule starts the next calendar day at 8:00am using the account's time zone. (ex. The user signs up July 1 at 5:00pm — If the reminder frequency is set to once every 7 days, the first reminder is sent July 8. )

  5. Enable Validation Reminder Bar : Enable the reminder bar that appears at the top of the page to remind users to validate their account. The default is set to 'enabled'. Email validation is always enabled for "Quick Sign Up" with no option to disable.
