Laravel 5.1 How to send email verification email after registration?

Question

I need users to verify their email address after registration. I have confirmation_code and confirmed fields in users table. How can I send an email after a user registration?

Your question is not clear enough; I think you ask asking... "how do I fire an action after a route is called" — Matthew Malone, Aug 16 '15 at 07:20

You need a normal blade template being the body

Mail::send('emails.reminder', ['user' => $user], function ($m) use ($user) {
    $m->to($user->email, $user->name)->subject('Your Reminder!');
});

In just place a the confirmation_code in the email and define a route, e.g. mypage.com/emailverification/1389734jhikdfsjkb1234908adkb

When the user vists the link you check the database for this entry and set the status of the registration to completed.

You can still use the default auth controller. Just put the mail call in the `create` function – cre8 Aug 16 '15 at 11:58
