  hello wordpress!

  I had the same issue as another user where clicking the verification email link opens a webpage that just says “sorry all fields are required”

  the problem is that the plain text version of the verification email provides a link where the query string is being improperly escaped into “ampersand encoding” when only the redirect_to value needs to be.

  changing all parts of the link that say & parts into & will correct this as I tested it with my own verification link.

  thanks for all the hard work

  ah excuse me character encoding strikes again. it should read:

  Hi there!

  I just checked your account and it seems to be verified at the moment. Are you still being asked to verify this WordPress.com account somewhere on your dashboard?
