How do i generate token for each user who submit my custom form? [closed]

Question

I have a created a custom module with simple form with only three fields (URL, title, and email), where user must enter all the fields for submission.

I am able to send the mail to the user from my custom module, but I need to create and attach a validation link (possibly with unique token for email).

How do I generate a token and store it in the database to use it for validation?

Answer 1

1.Declare custom tokens using hook_token_info()

2.Create custom tokens using hook_tokens()

3.You can use your custom tokens using token_replace() that is call the token_replace at the place where u need to send the email.

4.Create a seperate file inside your module with .tokens.inc extension and include the hook_tokens_info() and hook_tokens() inside it.
