#2573 closed Defect (fixed)

User validation by email causes problems for users registered/created with it off

Reported by: cash Owned by: cash
Priority: high Milestone: Elgg 1.8.0
Component: User Validation by Email Version: Github Master
Severity: major Keywords:
Cc: brettp Difficulty: moderate

Description

Problem description:

  • users sign up with user validation by email off
  • user validation by email turned on
  • users cannot log in because they are unvalidated

The same is true for users created by the admin.

Option 1: fundamental change so that only unvalidated users get metadata to say they are unvalidated

Option 2: The other option is to set the validation status to true in the core and then have the user validation by email plugin change it to false.
