For newly registered users you can request an email verification before they are granted access to the system.
To enable this feature you need to follow a few steps:
1. Enable Double Email Verification
First you need to enable this feature and choose the subscription destination from the register form settings (UMP Dashboard -> Showcases -> Register Form).
2. Activate Notifications
Under the UMP Dashboard -> Notifications tab you have two main notification types available:
- Double E-mail Verification Request
- Double E-mail Verification Validated
These notifications are available by default. For request notifications, the {verify_email_address_link} needs to be included in the email message.
3. Additional Settings
On the UMP Dashboard -> General Options -> E-mail Verification page you can define when the verification link will expire, and whether the unapproved user will be automatically deleted or not.
Within the Users tab you can see each user’s email verification status and as an admin, you can manually approve them.
The user’s statuses are:
- Unapproved – The email verification was requested but not verified yet.
- Verified – The email verification was requested and the user’s email was verified.
- Unverified – The email verification wasn’t requested.
