At present there are two ways of users registration at the websites within uCoz web-services.

uID authorization (uID users)

When a user finishes uID authorization, he/she receives uID (universal login). It allows users to visit uCoz websites without repeated registrations. Such a user has a huge advantage of high-tech, advanced management of his/her global profile via Webtop. Users may not only manage websites and personal data, but fulfill other useful functions via Webtop. Besides, each uID user has his/her own userbar at uCoz websites (control panel of available site features).
uID authorization is available at all the websites by default and it is a system feature.
uID users login to the website by means of E-mail and Password.

Local authorization

When a user finishes local authorization, he/she becomes a user of only one website (the one he/she has registered at). Webtop and userbar is not available for such a user. He/she has to register at other websites again.
Local users login to the websites by means of Login and Passowrd.
Local authorization feature is not a system one, that is why it is a paid service. To enable local authorization feature you need to pay once for one of the package of services and the feature will be enabled for the whole period of the website existence!

Now it is not possible to enable both local and uID users! You need to choose either local authorization or uID authorization method!

How to disable website registration?

It is possible to disable registration for users at the website. To do so go to Control panel->Users->Module settings->do not tag the checkbox “Activate "Users" module”->Save.
After disabling this module, it will not be possible to register and login to the website. Administrators login will be realized through http://yourwebsite.com/admin/.

How to register via the Control panel?

Website administrator can register a user at his/her website via the Control panel any time, regardless of the authorization method. Such a user will be a Local user and will always be able to login to the website, regardless of the authorization method (besides the times, when “Users” module is disabled).
All the websites support local authorization!

If you face any registration at the website problems, be sure to provide a link to the website!

Question:	Wondering if you know how to make it so that any user that tries to register at my site has to be accepted by the admin? Like an email gets sent to the admin asking if the user can be registered?
Answer:	You can do similar, by limiting 'User' group permissions & move each user to Checked group manually. It'll do same function. [Armaros]

Question:	Is there an option to confirm users e-mail by clicking on his profile or somewhere? (I mean from administrators side) Because one user don't get the confirmation e-mail and I want to confirm the e-mail for him. If there isn't this option, maybe you could create it in administrators panel somewhere or in users profile a button next to e-mail?
Answer:	Add this user via Control panel - Users - Add new user. Then he won't need to confirm email.

Question:	Hello to all! Anybody can tell me how can I block user registration with false emails? The site will check if a email is true or not. I want to block (log in) site for the users who don’t confirm email, I know block activity but it isn’t sufficient for me.
Answer:	Quote (dorjan1976) I know block activity but it isn't sufficient for me. No other way with e-mails.

Question:	I don't want people to be able to sign up on my site. But if I deactivate the user module, the login button will disappear), and I won't be able to make changes directly to my site (like adding a new blog entry). Is there any way to get around this?
Answer:	Remove registration page itself. CP -> Customize Design -> Users -> Users registration page. Edit it & write: "Registration isn't available in this site!". But before you do that, register your account.

daki10, as Superhero already mentioned, system automatically sends an e-mail notification of a users registration. If e-mail isn't sent that you have un-marked "E-mail notification of a user about registration" at Users -> Module settings.

daki10, there is mass delivery if you want to inform one or more of your forum groups about something. And you can use PM to welcome each new user, like Superhero already mentioned.

That's not possible. User gets a notification letter of registration at site to his/hers provided e-mail.
If you do want to say something you can do it at registration form or send e-mails/pm manually.

You can also try to do the following:

Quote (Kron)

you can do something like this:

Code

<?if($USER_REG_DAYS$<1)?>This is your first day of membership!<?endif?>

insert this code to main page content...
