I cloned from github, can the generator with the --include-activation  
option

Now when I go to create a new user account the following method in  
app/models/user\_observer.rb fails:

def after\_save(user)

```
UserMailer.deliver_activation(user) if user.recently_activated?

```

end

The model method ‘.recently\_acticated?’ does not exist in the generated  
user model. After searching around I can see that older versions of this  
plug-in included this method but I have to assume it was removed for a  
reason. So I would like to try to get it first working the way the  
author intended before I start modifying. Any ideas?

I catched bug then activation code was generated twice, and user was  
not able to activate his account because sent activation code was  
rewritten.

The reason was that both aasm\_roles.rb and stateful\_roles.rb were  
loaded. After deleting one of them all works fine
