Android banner and modal for unconfirmed users

[loarie]

For any unconfirmed user on any iNaturalist app, add a green banner at the top of the site styled like this:

The banner should say:
"Please confirm that [email address] is the best way to contact you. Click here to resend a confirmation email"

When the user clicks on the underlined potion reveal a modal that says:
"Please click the link sent to [email address] to confirm your email address."

@loarie - which part is underlined? The email address?
Also, how do we detect if a user is unconfirmed? One of the fields in the /users/me API response?

A user is unconfirmed if the users/me response has a user where confirmed_at exists and is not null.

If @loarie wants the user to be able to resend the confirmation email, you're going to have to use the undocumented /users/resend_confirmation endpoint, which requires auth and resends the email to the authenticated user.

FWIW, I think it's very confusing that the banner doesn't match the screenshot, and that the banner text implies that an email will be sent but tapping the banner just opens a modal that does nothing.

@abhasinat do we need the underlined link in the banner to open a modal (analogous to what happens in the existing modal on profile) or can the underlined link in the banner just send the email directly?

Yep, here's the text we can use:

Yep, the intent was to make it more pervasive and annoying to encourage a user to confirm their email. We also decided to change the text to indicate that a confirmation email would be resent (see below). Clicking the banner should open a modal with the text: "Would you like to resend a confirmation email to [email address]?" with the buttons "Resend Email" and "Cancel"

After an email is sent, there should be a modal with the text "Email sent! Please click the link in the email." with a single CTA "Ok"

We can also do an underline of the last line if that's better, though the entire banner should be clickable:

thanks for adding this @budowski budowski - is this issue now closed?

[budowski]

Assuming it's looking good for you? @tiwane ? @abhasinat ?

I tested this on the old Huawei and it works great. I had to close/reopen the app for the banner to go away after confirming but I don't think thats a big deal. I approve closing this if you're comfortable doing so
