To access the User Registration options in the Settings section:
Open the Security Manager card in Configuration Manager.
Click Settings on the menu.
Click User Registration.
The lockout options are loaded with two sections: Self Registration Policy and Self Registration Settings.
Two options, Save and Discard, are disabled until the contents of the fields are modified. The Save option commits the changes made, while the Discard option restores the original values in the modified fields. The Discard option disables the Save and Discard options.
In addition, if the form fields in a details blade remain unchanged it is possible to work with the "parent" grid. Once modifications are made in the details blade the grid becomes "disabled" and grid interactions are no longer possible until the changes are saved or the details blade is closed.
Navigating to another tab in the blade without explicitly saving any changes made in the previous tab will cause the changes to be lost. Clicking on the X button in the blade header closes the User details blade, with any changes which were not saved being lost.
This section contains an option for enabling/disabling self registration along with a setting to configure the number of days before unconfirmed users are deleted.
