Options for bypassing email activation requirement?
aku
We're a new Finnish startup considering TOG. Some of the features seem
really nice, but we might not want to require email activation for
signups. Instead we will probably go with image verification, Facebook
login or something else. What would be the right approach to implement
this kind of alternatives and get the user accounts completely set up
without the "pending" step?

To automatically enable the users without email activation just use
current_user.activate!
in the create method of the UsersController in your app, what it's
basically what activation process does.

For the captcha approach you just need to enable the following setting
in tog config:
Tog::Config["plugins.tog_user.captcha_enabled"] = true

This is a lot trickier but doable as seen in http://www.trourist.com
(tog powered app). It becomes trickier if you want to mix different
user profiles in your app (users signed up by Facebook Connect,
regular signups, etc) since you have to allow multiple login and
signup ways. This is a good starting point:
The facebook connect integration is planned for tog but still not
clear roadmap about dates.
