Description
Description:
When an administrator adds a new user to the chat and leaves the verify switch off, the new user gets an email containing username and password, but cannot login until the administrator switches the verify flag on.
Steps to reproduce:
- As administrator go to 'Administration / Users' and click on '+' symbol in right sidebar.
- Fill in necessary user fields, but keep 'Verified' switch off.
- Save the user.
Expected behavior:
The new user should be able to log in with the credentials from the email.
Actual behavior:
Login is only possible if administrator switches 'Verified' on.
