A user hits the forum, wants to jump in, then, of course, needs to register. Upon completing the registration, however, they are prompted to confirm their email before being able to do anything on the forum as a user, such as editing their profile.
I completely understand the reasons for this, however I think there is big value in being able to allow a user in immediately, with their email needing to be confirmed in, say, 24 hours. Having them leave the forum, swing over to their email, then back to the forum seems like an easy way to turn people off returning....I like the idea of letting them in right away, while we have their attention.
Any thoughts on how to go about implementing this?
