hi, i hope this is an easy question, but i didn't find answers
elsewhere in the forum.

here's what i'm looking to do:

1) a parent registers with the site
2) the parent registers her child using just an email address
3) the child receives the verification email, and clicks on the link
4) the child then finishes the rest of the registration

the part i'm having trouble with is the transition from (3) to (4). in
(2) i was able to do a custom form to create the user and populate the
registration_key field, no problem. but what i would like to do is
have clicking on the verification link actually log in the user, and
then use updates to set the rest of the variables.

this isn't a security risk because it's just registration and there's
no data about the child in the system. basically, i want the child to
be logged in BEFORE having to set a password, then change it inside.
is there a command i can use that will log a user in, or a way to set
verification to automatically log in a user?

thanks,

matt
