Active/Inactive Status

The User model has an is_active boolean attribute, that is true by default for newly created users.

If is_active is false, it won't prevent the user from login. You need to handle that in your app's login controller or guard driver

You can inactivate a user with the following method:

$user->inactivate();

This will emit a UserWasInactivated event.

An inactive user can be activated with:

$user->activate();

This will emit a UserWasActivated event.
