Cosmic Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 can anyone tell me what database table & field is flagged in some manner to identify that user as a not-yet-validated user? I've just looked at the fields of core_members for both a registered and validating member, and there wasn't anything that jumped out at me as different. Thanks.

Adriano Faria Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 User must have a record on core_validating table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmic Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 thank you very much, I hadn't spotted there was a validating table. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmic Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 So the next question is... Is there any way of returning the validating flag with the IPS framework? In the same way that \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->member_id; .. will return the member_id? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adriano Faria Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Why would you do that ? IIRC,one way is change their email and make them confirm it ? In this case the user would be required to validate it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to validate them via the IPS framework, I want to know *IF* they're validating or not via that framework. I use the IPB logins for some stuff away from the IPB install I have, on the main part of my (custom coded) website for competitions and the like - and I don't want validating users to be able to enter the competitions (which they can do at the moment) - so I need to look to see if they're validating. I could just query the validating table, but i'd prefer to use the right framework code if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adriano Faria Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Actually there's a bitwise column on core_members that stores, among other things, the VALIDATING status: members_bitoptions: \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->members_bitoptions['validating'] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmic Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 I saw a reference to that on one of the doc pages, tho it suggests it's for validating a member rather than finding out if their status is validating. I'll give it a go tho, and see what it returns, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmic Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 yep, that works. It returns '1' if validating, and '0' if not. Thanks for your help Adriano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
