Community Auth: Why was the Registration Controller removed from the latest version? - iamthestreets - 09-08-2015
I was looking through the old version of Community Auth and saw a lot of useful controllers and methods. Any reason why these were removed from the latest version?
Also, can i use them in the newest version of Community Auth.
Thanks!

The registration controller, along with much of the example application, was removed from Community Auth because it was not directly related to authentication. The current examples provided just show a minimal amount of functionality, enough so that the developer can create their own application. This also makes integration of Community Auth into an existing application far easier.
Most of the examples in the old version of Community Auth will still work, but will probably need some minor tweaking to make them compatible with the new version. That said, if you take the time to learn how those examples worked, you wont need them, and it is recommended that you create your own anyways. The reason for this is that as a developer you really want to have a deep understanding of how your application works, as you will constantly be changing things and making it better for your specific needs.
