So I’m trying to do this - the use case is a user has changed their email in the SSO system, however they now can’t log in since there’s another account of theirs that uses their new email address already. SSO refuses to update the email (even though we have sso_overrides_email on) because email addresses must be unique across accounts. I don’t want to delete the account without the SSO record as that has posts associated with it. And if I turn off sso_overrides_email to change the email manually, I can’t make it some broken email since Discourse insists on validating it.
I see there’s a way to merge users but a) it’s a rake task and we’re hosted with Discourse, do I contact support to do that? b) there’s comments about needing to swap the primary and secondary email addresses.
