1) Yes – it will only set to subscriber. That’s all it does. The role administrator is there for other purposes, which was not included in the tutorial.
2) This is inside the “forgot()” method which is when a user is trying to reset their password. This is simply a check if the user hasn’t gone through a successful “complete()” method (where the status is set in the model-> updateUserInfo().

@Michael Soriano Indeed a great article to learn from! Below are my queries,it’d be great if u would give more clarity on those.
1) I wanted to know when will the role be set to admin and when will it be subscriber. In my case it is being set to subscriber all the time. Although I want it to be admin for some users.
2) The status is set to pending unless the user hits the unique generated link. Under which scenario will this condition be executed? https://github.com/michaelsoriano/user-registration-codeigniter/blob/0abf42d09e0cfd3cea849b4dd7d0a024d2011274/application/controllers/Main.php#L178
