Mastodon admin account verification
-
Hello!
Thank you for your guide I did already go through the link you mentioned I managed to verify my email but after verifying its saying that the staff has to review so when I tried to review my own account the page does not navigate anywhere else except it’s stuck at account pending for review
-
@onlybro You should modify the env file in the app's file browser to allow open registration.
-
Could you please state what’s the parameter I should change on mastodon env to enable registration?

@onlybro read the documentation again in the drop down menu in the app dashboard. You need to use the terminal to make a user the admin.
Hello how are you? Thanks for the reply
I did make myself admin I did verify the email but after doing all of them yet I get a message saying account under review and needs to be reviewed by staff although I’m admin and yet after having email verified it says account under review and needs to be reviewed by staff I’m unable to navigate any further or not able to enter the admin panel too but I did receive an email to accept my own admin account which leads to the admin account but after clicking that too yet the page lands to “account under review needs to be reviewed by the staff”

This is all what I get even after confirming the email and I’m unable to move any further from him not even to the admin panel or elsewhere

@onlybro It sounds like, when you installed Mastodon, you didn't choose "Leave user management to the app", and thus, invisibly, whoever your Cloudron admin user is, that user was automatically created in Mastodon. So, you need to make THAT user the admin user, using the command found near the top of https://docs.cloudron.io/apps/mastodon/.
bin/tootctl accounts modify <username> --role adminHere is the install tab in the Dashboard:

Many thanks for the reply I noted your point could you also tell me how do i find the user name ? To make the THAT user admin?? Is it my cloudron user name ?
@onlybro Looks like you figured the name of the Cloudron admin name, good!
These are the only two links I found which seemed to have some method. Overall, it seems the logo is meant to remain the Mastodon logo.
