\n\t This article will guide you through the process of setting up the Verified Users extension for UsersWP. <\/p>\n

Getting Started<\/h2>\n
\n\t You need to have the Verified Users<\/a> extension for UsersWP installed and activated in order to access these options. <\/section>\n

\n\tThe Verified Users extension for UsersWP allows you to show a verified user badge<\/strong> in the user\u2019s profile, next to the user name — just like the one you’d see on social networks such as Twitter and Instagram. <\/p>\n

\n\t When active, the extension adds a settings page to UsersWP > Addons > Verified Users. <\/strong>You (administrator) can tweak the settings as per your requirements. For additional details, please see our Settings Overview<\/a>.<\/p>\n

How Does the Verification Process Work? <\/h2>\n
\n
1<\/dt>\n
\n\tFirst, users request for verification from their profile page — the extension adds a Request Verification <\/strong>button for this purpose. \n<\/dd>\n

\t\"\"<\/p>\n

2<\/dt>\n
\n\tNext, the administrator gets an email with the verification request details. The request can then be approved or rejected by the admin from the Users page. \n<\/dd>\n

\t\"\"<\/p>\n

3<\/dt>\n
\n\tOnce verified, a verification badge will be displayed next to the user’s name. A confirmation email will also be sent to the user. Read more about Verified Users emails<\/a>. \n<\/dd>\n

\t\"\"<\/p>\n

\n\tAdmin can also go to a user’s profile and select Verify User from the Account Verification drop-down to mark a user as verified.<\/section>\n<\/dl>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
