Research direction

The payload does not name any files; the reported strings are "Email me a code", "This address is already verified. Reloading…" and "Access: Email not verified". Search the repository for those strings to find the verification flow, then compare the account's verified flag with what the email-change path writes. Done means a reproduction account either shows as verified or receives a code. The fix probably depends on production account data, so a newcomer will need a maintainer to confirm the cause first.

Description

bug
What happened?

I signed up on the web with ORCID. My account still shows Access: Email not verified, and the dashboard asks me to verify my email. When I click “Email me a code”, it shows “This address is already verified. Reloading…” and no code is sent. After the reload, it is still unverified, so I’m stuck in a loop.

Steps / context

Sign-up with ORCID, then I received a “Verify your email” code (Oct 7).
I changed my sign-in email to my school address, then changed it back to Gmail and confirmed that change with the code from Settings.
Since then: “Email not verified” in Settings, “already verified” on the dashboard.
In Settings, Username shows “Couldn’t load — refresh to try again.”
I also tried signing out and back in.

Account
ORCID: 0009-0009-2928-7854

What did you expect?

Either the account is shown as verified, or a code is sent so I can verify it.

Steps to reproduce
  1. Sign in on app.nemar.org with ORCID (account ORCID: 0009-0009-2928-7854).
  2. Dashboard shows "ONE STEP LEFT – Verify your email address". Click "Email me a code".
  3. Message "This address is already verified. Reloading…" appears, no code is sent. After reload, the page still asks to verify. Settings shows "Access: Email not verified" and "Username: Couldn't load".

Context: on Oct 7 I changed my sign-in email to my school address, then back to Gmail (confirmed with the code from Settings). The problem started after that. Signing out/in did not fix it.

Privacy check
  • I reviewed the debug log before pasting it. NEMAR redacts API keys, Bearer tokens, AWS credentials, and email addresses automatically, but I checked for anything else I don't want to share (e.g. local file paths).
