Laravel 5.7 - Verification email is not sent

I had this exactly same problem. That is default code from Laravel.

In order to send the email after successful registration you can do this workaround:

at App\Http\Controllers\Auth\RegisterController

change this:

protected function create(array $data)
    {
        return User::create([
            'name' => $data['name'],
            'email' => $data['email'],
            'password' => Hash::make($data['password']),
        ]);
    }

to this:

protected function create(array $data)
    {
        $user = User::create([
            'name' => $data['name'],
            'email' => $data['email'],
            'password' => Hash::make($data['password']),
        ]);

        $user->sendEmailVerificationNotification();

        return $user;
    }

I also have had the same issue. As I checked the source code, it isn't necessary to implement to call the sendEmailVerificationNotfication() method, you just should add the event handler to your EventServiceProvider.php, as because of your event handler was previously created, so Larael can't update that. It should look like this:

namespace App\Providers;

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Event;
use Illuminate\Auth\Events\Registered;
use Illuminate\Auth\Listeners\SendEmailVerificationNotification;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Support\Providers\EventServiceProvider as ServiceProvider;

class EventServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    /**
     * The event listener mappings for the application.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $listen = [
        Registered::class => [
            SendEmailVerificationNotification::class,
        ],
    ];

in case somebody else is looking for a solution for the same problem.

please read the documentation, it explains exactly what needs to be done to solve this issue

https://laravel.com/docs/5.7/verification

in a nutshell, and if you are already using 5.7 (i.e you have the necessary fields in your users table) all that you need to do is the following:

• make your User model implement the MustVerifyEmail interface.
• add ['verify' => true] to the Auth::routes method Auth::routes(['verify' => true]);

you can find everything you need about email verification in the link above.
