Okay, I think I understand now. Until they verify, the account isn't created? So, forgive me for not walking through the process. Are they asked to create a login before they provide all the information and email address? If not, where is all their information stored until the email address is validated? I'm just trying to understand which comes first, email validation, or the storage of their self registration information.
The data is stored in borrower_modifications. They provide an email address when registering, it's mandatory when using email verification and is used to send the email. They don't need to create a login right away, they will be able to enter a password after clicking on the verification link in the email, at which time the account is created and the data moved to borrowers.
And maybe this needs to morph into a different subject/title, but what if an email address is changed or added later, either by staff or patron. It seems that right now the only validation happening is at registration, but no other time. It seems that we need to work towards adding this notification to notices.pl, if not for this specific instance, but for the possibility of validating addresses at some other point. I know. I am putting the cart before the horse here.
But back to my question. Is there no patron info stored before the validation email goes out?
See above. Everything they enter in the self registration form is stored, but in borrower_modifications. There is a cronjob option to delete data of unverified registrations to clean that up regularly. There are already other bugs for email/patron verification.
