690431 - Invited users should have email confirmation pre-filled to 1

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Participation Infrastructure :: Phonebook, defect, P3)

Description

[Austin King [:ozten]]

If a user is invited and they register the same email address as the invite was sent too, then they should not have to confirm their email address. The confirm field in their profile should be created with 1 instead of 0.

Steps to Reproduce:
1) Login with vouched user A
2) Invite user B at [e-mail]
3) Logout
4) Click invitation link and register user B

Leave [e-mail] in the Primary email field

5) Complete account creation and log out
6) Login as user B

Expected:
User is logged in and can use search, etc

Actual:
You need to confirm your account before you can log in. Resend confirmation email?

Agreed with the bug and the severity. Would this be worthwhile as a "[goodfirstbug]", Austin ?

Account code can be tricky for first bugs, but I'll defer to davedash who wrote this feature. mentor=davedash... would be the keyword he would add if appropriate.

[Sebastian Hengst [:aryx] (needinfo me if it's about an intermittent or backout)]

If you implement this, then the invitation mails shouldn't be sent with the inviter's mail address as sender, else bouncing mails provide the opportunity for him to register with that other address.

Agree with the reasoning behind this bug request. It would be good for someone to pick up as a first bug with help from a mentor.

Dave, do you still want to be a mentor on this bug?

Thanks for your interested yashness. Unfortunately this bug does not apply anymore since we're using Persona, thus the email is already verified.

We'll talk on IRC to find you another bug to start with.

Thanks!
