When a user logs in using the Patreon Plugin’s log in through Patreon, the plugin fetches their name, patreon\_id, date\_created and some other information and creates a new user.

I would like to request that the plugin also fetch the email of the user as I am sure the API allows that. The reason I ask for this: I can’t give custom roles if the user doesn’t have an email set. It doesn’t need to have been verified, just there.

Of course, if it’s not possible because of some restrictions from WordPress itself, then it can’t be helped.

Plugin fetches the email if the Patreon user has his email verified. Otherwise, doesnt. Its for security reasons.
