Please help: How to get a Social Connect plugin to to set user role as Confirm Email

GaryFunk

In Vanilla 2.1a33 the Social Connect plugins for Facebook and Twitter register new users as members. I have been searching and looking at the code but cannot find the method to set the user role as Confirm Email. I think it has something to do with ValidateEmail and NoConfirmEmail.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks.

Geez, may I please get a little help from someone?

Your expectations are quite high. you want help from forum members on an alpha version that has been released recently with a complex question. Personally, I don't touch facebook or twitter related stuff.

maybe todd or lincoln can help you.

see if you can use the same process debugging and troubleshooting as this method and report back when you have solved it

look at folders that contain social in vanilla and related controllers and js.

now - if you asked a question. "I got a bonk, what do I do" or one of the other common questions that are asked ad nauseum because the person asking the questions is "search-box" challenged - you might have gotten an answer .

So true.

I do search. I look at the code. I do what I can to figure it out on my own. But there are times, I just can't understand what is going on.

Thanks for your replay.

.oops wrong discussion - please delete.

Even if you did post in the wrong discussion, you can always just come say Hi to me. And I am going to figure this out. I need to learn how to Trace in PHP.

came back here to say "hi"

never had much luck with eclipse, but will try again some time.
I found netbeans is partially useful (but it crashes with watch variables). and the @businessdad 's logger plugin is quite good.

or you could just add messages to your log via without plugin.

in your program

LogMessage(__FILE__,__LINE__,'Object','Method', 'Message');   

in config.php

$Configuration['Garden']['Errors']['LogEnabled'] = TRUE;   
$Configuration['Garden']['Errors']['LogFile'] = 'log/error_log';   

and debugger
$Configuration['Garden']['Debug'] = TRUE;
