I'm using
user.skip_confirmation!
To skip the devise email confirmation when a new user is added by an existing user. The problem with the skip_confirmation is that it does not generate a confirmation token.
I want to manually send a confirmation email which means I need a confirmation token.
How can I skip the devise confirmation email yet still generate a confirmaton_token to allow me to manually send a custom confirmation email to added users?
Thanks
See confirmable.rb. In particular, around line 253 - 256. I think that should help you out.
In short:
module Devise
module Models
module Confirmable
module ClassMethods
# Generate a token checking if one does not already exist in the database.
def confirmation_token
generate_token(:confirmation_token)
end
end
end
end
end
@user = User.new(:email => 'email@example.com', :password => 'password')
@user.skip_confirmation_notification!
@user.save
Here skip_confirmation_notification! generate a confirmation token but does not send confirmation email.
