How to verify a User's email?
Hi, As Admin, How can I manually verify a User's email?
Issue: when logging in as the User, I get an error/warning message.
PS: the warning message hides itself, too quickly! I don't think those login messages should auto hide, they should be persistent.
Setup: I have mailpit running and setup in .env Any emails that go out will be trapped, here, locally. I did not get any email messages. Expected: I expected an email to say that a new user was added to the system. I expected an email to go out asking for email verification, OR enable Admin to bypass the verification when creating the user. I expect there to be an option to manually verify the email.
Situation: I manually created a couple of users. I'm trying to login as them in an incognito window so that I can be logged in as both at the same time (I don't want impersonate for this instance) So that I can edit things in the Admin and keep seeing what it looks like to the User.
Hi there,
I've just tested this and it seems to be working as expected, after signing up I received this verification email:
I could suggest cross-checking your mail env variables in the .env file and also checking your spam box to see if the email is not getting filtered.
Regarding the manual verification, what you could do is to update the user directly in your database and set the verified to 1.
Let me know how it goes.
Best,
Bobby

Hey! I just tested this and updated my answer. Let me know if you have any questions.
"Situation: I manually created a couple of users."
So the issue is that when Admin creates users, there's no way to receive the verification email, nor is the field visible in the editor.
Improve by adding a button to resend the Email Verification email. IMO I feel like there should always be a button/link to resend emails of any type.
