UserManager Settings

Below is a complete list of configurable Flask-User settings.

| The UserManager__Settings class mixes into the UserManager class.

USER_EMAIL_SENDER_NAME = ''

Sender’s name, user by the EmailAdapters.

Optional. Defaults to USER_APP_NAME setting.

USER_IFIND_MODE = 'ifind'

The way Flask-User handles case insensitive searches.

Valid options are:

- ‘ifind’ (default): Use the case insensitive ifind_first_object()

- ‘nocase_collation’: username and email fields must be configured

with an case insensitve collation (collation=’NOCASE’ in SQLAlchemy)

so that a regular find_first_object() can be performed.

USER_SEND_PASSWORD_CHANGED_EMAIL = True

Send notification email after a password change.

Depends on USER_ENABLE_EMAIL=True.

USER_SEND_REGISTERED_EMAIL = True

Send notification email after a registration.

Depends on USER_ENABLE_EMAIL=True.

USER_SEND_USERNAME_CHANGED_EMAIL = True

Send notification email after a username change.

Depends on USER_ENABLE_EMAIL=True.

Only invited users may register.

Depends on USER_ENABLE_EMAIL=True.

USER_ALLOW_LOGIN_WITHOUT_CONFIRMED_EMAIL = False

Ensure that users can login only with a confirmed email address.

Depends on USER_ENABLE_EMAIL=True.

This setting works in tandem with the @allow_unconfirmed_emails view decorator to allow users without confirmed email addresses to access certain views.

Caution

Use USER_ALLOW_LOGIN_WITHOUT_CONFIRMED_EMAIL=True and @allow_unconfirmed_email with caution, as they relax security requirements.

Make sure that decorated views never call other views directly. Allways se redirect() to ensure proper view protection.
