Email Verification Forms Plugin

grahama 14 Oct, 2010
I wanted to see if I have understood what the email verification plugin should do.

I am wanting to verify that the email address that has been entered on the form is valid as part of the submit process.

If the email address is a valid email (I am guessing this is doing an smtp check) then thee form directs, if it does not it will fail with an error message and then prompt the user for correct info.

Does this sound correct?

Obviously if anyone has comments or tips on configuring the plugin, these would be welcomed.

I appreciate any responses and thanks for the help.

Hi Graham,

The Email Verification plug-in sends an email with a 'verification link' to the email address. When the link is clicked the field you specified in the database table is updated from 0 to 1.

There's no SMTP check - or any other real-time check.
