Elizabeth")* Since HikaShop is using basic Joomla user registration and account settings, it's a Joomla option you'll need to review and change: In the Joomla backend, go to -> Users -> User Manager -> Options. Look for "New User Account Activation". I guess it's now set to "Admin". Set it to either "Self" or "None" instead and save. --- Need help with customisations of layouts, style or other site development?
