I have a users authentication system I made from scratch with the help of the Rails cast and for the edit form I want to have the users need to type in their current password in order to change their email or password.I’m not sure how this would be built, could anyone help me or point me in the right direction?
Thank you.
They’d enter the password, you’d encrypt it and compare it against the model’s encrypted password value, and if they match, you’d do the update. If they don’t, you wouldn’t.
