Hello,

I want to collect email in registration of my captive portal.

It's possible?   

Thanks

Anybody has already making this code????


Coding is not my favorite friend !

Would you not end up with a long list of 'MickeyMouse@disney.com' type of addresses? If you force your users to verify their address, you need to offer them an internet connection to do so. Chicken and egg problem.

This may be illegal in countries with strict private laws  because you are only allowed PII, which are needed to provide the service (for example postal address for online stores).

In France , it's legal, if you can unsubcribe to the mail list, and you must mark this, on page of captive portal.

I think I would have a lot of fake email, but it's not very important for my client


The easiest way is to upload a custom template doing an additional POST request to another server like an Raspberry PI in the same network and then do the login. Please note that I will very likely not add such a feature to the CP.
