Allow Unverified Users to Log In and Resend Verification Email

[cdwmhcc]

Describe the Improvement

Description:

Currently, during the user registration process, a verification email is sent to the user's provided email address. If the user does not receive this verification email, they are unable to proceed with any further actions within the application.

Issues:

Email Delivery Failures: Users may not receive verification emails due to various reasons such as spam filters or server issues, leading to frustration and potential abandonment of the registration process.

Improvement:

To improve user experience and engagement, it is proposed to modify the registration and login process to allow users who have not yet verified their email addresses to log in. This adjustment will provide them with the opportunity to resend the verification email and continue exploring the application and can view restricted profiles.

Resending verification emails is currently already supported, as users with the unverified can simply register again. I do agree however, that a "Resend verification email" button would go a long way on the current register page.

As for the ability for unverified users to log in, that would require a proper feature request process as this would certainly require a few more considerations than just allowing them to log in. So please feel free to open a Feature Request

Your consideration is correct. For unverified users, the only necessary function is the ability to resend verification emails after logging in. Other interactions with the app seem unnecessary until verification is complete.

They can do that by registering again.

Ahh, could be a nice to have but thats a new thing. Currently unauthorized users see this screen when logging in:
