Overview
This plugin allows you to verify your BuddyPress members individually or based on WP roles. You can also allow members to request verification directly from their member profile.
Verified members will have a twitter-like “verified” badge displayed on the front-end, and you can choose to display an “unverified” badge for those who haven’t been verified yet.
A dedicated settings tab allows you to choose where you want to display the badges:
+ Activities
+ Profiles
+ Member Lists (e.g.: member directory)
+ BuddyPress widgets
+ Private Messages
+ bbPress Forums
+ WordPress Comments and Posts
As well as other settings like the badge color or tooltip.
This plugin is also compatible with BP Better Message

Ideal plugin to promote safety and trust
by Chris·1 year ago·1 reply
I’m working on a online community for my home town community. We are adding a classified ads section to create a safe market place – users can pay a small one off fee to cover verification, then we, as a company, can offer some accountability. Thank you for keeping this updated.
Works great

I use this plugin together with BuddyBoss and everything works great.
A simple but functional plugin.
Please do not give up on its development because it is very much needed!
Great plugin, great support

Very good plugin, adds a much needed sense of “trust” between users of my dating/social site, great functionality too as it allows filtering of content between verified/unverified users, plus excellent helpful support from the developer. Definitely ten out of ten.
