How to use

Delete Account

Allow users to delete their own account via a front end form. To enable this go to Settings > Porter and toggle the Delete Account field. Also edit the settings such as what confirmation keyword the user needs to type before their account is deleted.

The quickest way to add the form to your template is with using the deleteAccountForm method:

{{ craft.porter.deleteAccountForm() }}

By default it will add a set of classes prefixed with porter__, but you can add customisation parameters so you can change the styling, for example if your using Tailwind CSS:

{{ craft.porter.deleteAccountForm(
    {
        buttonClass: 'bg-black text-white hover:bg-white hover:text-black',
        buttonText: 'Delete Account'
    }
) }}

If you want to have more control you can get the full template from bymayo/porter/src/templates/components/deleteAccountForm.twig.

With this method, you can also get the default template properties by using craft.porter.deleteAccountFormProperties() and pulling a specific property from it:

{% set formProperties = craft.porter.deleteAccountFormProperties() %}

{{ formProperties.buttonText }}

⚠️ Users will only be able to delete their own accounts if the permission setting "Delete Users" is enabled on the user, or user group.

⚠️ Admin users CANNOT delete their own accounts for security reasons

Deactivate Account

        buttonText: 'Send Magic Link'
