I have to add some more data to my DB specific to the user right after registering them. I don't have a lot of experience in passing data back from the model so i'm pretty lost...
Is there a code example you could point me towards?
Thanks,

Unfortunately, I can't see any specific function provided by Ion_auth that provides this functionality to your controller. The register function lives within the library and returns the user_id. Someone else may have a better idea for getting at the user_id but it sounds like you may need to modify the library to get what your after.
Take a look at the below code found within the register function. You'll see how the devs were able to extract the user_id and store it in a variable to be passed in the event of email activation.
