Hi there, I am trying to implement an account confirmation feature when user register in the system. I am using the ABP template with asp.net Core and Module Zero.
I am trying to adapt this tutorial : <a class="postlink" href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/security/authentication/accconfirm">https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet ... accconfirm</a>
But as you guessed it is not working...
Does boilerplate currently have built-in support for this feature? If not, how should I do it?

Hi,
Current template does not have it but you can do it simply like this,
- There is a field called IsEmailConfirmed. Set this to false when a new user is registered and generate a password reset code and save it to user's PasswordResetCode field.
- Then, create a link (You also need to create a Action in your AccountController) for example <a class="postlink" href="http://yoursite.com/Account/ResetPassword?userId=xxxxxxxxxxxx&tenantId=yyyyyyyyyyy">http://yoursite.com/Account/ResetPasswo ... yyyyyyyyyy</a>. (use encrypted values here) .
- Send this link to user's email address and include password reset code in the email.
- When user clicks to this link, he/she will be redirected to your ResetPassword action.
- Decrypt userId and tenantId, find the matching user and compare the password reset code with the one user enters.
- If everyting goes well, activate user :).
I hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply! It helped a lot!
The only issue I have is I can't update the field IsActive and IsEmailConfirm for the user. Somehow, even if the user was created in the DB.
What I'm trying to do is this: Once the user clicked the confirmation link he received by email this method is called:
[UnitOfWork] public async Task<ActionResult> ConfirmEmail(int userID) { //find the user by id User userToUpdate = await _userManager.FindByIdAsync(userID); //--> always return null //User userToUpdate = await _userManager.GetUserByIdAsync(userID); //--> throw exception AbpException: There is no user with id: 7 //activate user & confirm email - this is supposed to auto update the db... userToUpdate.IsActive = true; userToUpdate.IsEmailConfirmed = true; return RedirectToAction("Login"); }Problem is, the user is never found. Would this be the right way to update a user ? It seems so when I read this page: [http://www.aspnetboilerplate.com/Pages/Documents/Unit-Of-Work])...

Hi,
You also need to include tenantId of user in the email confirmation link and get it in your ConfirmEmail action.
public async Task<ActionResult> ConfirmEmail(int? tenantId, int userID)Then before finding user, you need to switch the user's tenant.
CurrentUnitOfWork.SetTenantId(tenantId);
