notestakingapp's Issues

verifyuser endpoint to change to Active

After a user has been created successfully, an automated generated sequence is assigned to the confirmationCode in the database.

but when I ran the GET endpoint for verifyuser, it doesn't change the value in the database

Sending Confirmation Email

the code block for the confirmation email is working fine but there's a difficulty in actually sending the mail.

Unable to hash the new password to the database

When resetpass endpoint is initiated whereby is takes input of the new password, the raw data of the password is saved directly to the database which is not proper and it doesn’t not login.

I tried hashing the password but it’s not working

unable to save the new password to the database when initiating forgot password

once the forgot password in initiated, a reset link will be sent to the user's email which will prompt the user to enter new password and confirm password. once this is done, it doesn't change the password In the database.
