Identifying partially completed profiles

I'm currently investigating the use of deferred profile completion, e.g. auto-create partially completed community profiles based on our SSO login. The problem here is that some of our custom compone...

    It was easier than I thought. Just check if the name is already populated:

    <#if user.login != "">

      Thanks for sharing this. If "user.registration.complete" would've been documented I might have found this as well :) Where did you get that info from?

        True...maybe SuzieH can do something about this missing docs-information?

        I figured it out from the REST API (v1) call here: http://community.lithium.com/t5/Community-API/bd-p/developers-rest-api?leaf-id=User.registration.completed#User.registration.completed

        so I thought if that's available, why not try it directly on the user object in FreeMarker and it worked =)

         

        EDIT: As you have found that link as well, you were actually very close, Lith just sometime needs a shot in the dark for stuff like that and sometimes it also works =D

         

        EDIT2: It would actually be interesting to know if getting that information is also possible via API v2? I couldn't find a direct "completed" property, but v2 returns a block like that:

         

        "registration_data" : {
        "type" : "registration_data",
        "registration_time" : "2015-01-19T15:17:42.213+01:00",
        "status" : "fully-registered",
        "registration_access_level" : "all",
        "confirm_email_status" : true
},

        so would maybe the status give an indication if a user has completed the registration or not?

         

        EDIT3: Answering my own question...indeed, the "status" property of the registration_data node would give back "PARTIALLY_REGISTERED" (probably lower case if I look at above response...) according to the docs here: http://community.lithium.com/t5/Community-API-v2/User-resource/ta-p/152628
