Unable to change another user's email via ACP
-
v3.3.0, for reference.
If I need to change a user's email address, I search them in ACP, visit their profile and click "Change Email".
When I do this, instead of allowing me to change their email, I get bounced to the account verification page. I then get stuck in a loop until I log out and back in again, as any admin URL redirects back to that page.
I'm pretty sure what used to happen was that I would just get a text field input to enter the user's new email, and a save button.
Is what's happening expected behaviour? It doesn't seem logical to have to follow the account verification process on behalf of the user, I'm not sure that would even work since I don't have access to their email.
