I suggested this to BuddyPress Profile Privacy’s Jeff Farthing. A “let admin decide” option could have a radio button field for verified and unverified. I wish it would be available in a new update.
Good idea, @jeffsayre any chance of you adding something like this to the privacy plugin?
Seems like a simple enough plugin to create. I’m not sure it makes since in the privacy plugin though.
I don’t think this should be part of Jeff Sayre’s plugin as this has nothing to do with privacy.
Would work well as a simple plugin like techguy says… should be very easy to put something together with usermeta.
@r-a-y is correct. This is not an issue of privacy. Privacy is about offering users the ability to control access to their data.
@thekmen Did you find a way to add verified accounts ?
What abut using one of the member roles plugins? Then adding a code to a members profile that shows a check if they are verified or added to a certain role?
@modemlooper What plugins are you talking about ?
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-role-editor/
Thats one but i’m not sure it will work with BP. My thought was you could create a “verified” role and then do an if statement for some code to show a verified check badge.
I may make a plugin that adds a verified check.
@modemlooper I would need a plugin with this simple function, I go on the user page and with the admin options if I want I can select “verified account” and an image will be displayed on the member page.
Any leads on how I could write this ?
ok created this but made it so you verify via the WP backend at the bottom of each user page there is a check and it will show a little verified in profile header. I’ll upload it to the plugin repo after I create a check graphic.
This look great @modemlooper ! I’m looking forward to dowload it.
I think I may extend this a bit to allow admins to define user types. So they could add more than just verified. like a guru if it’s say a niche site for beer and a user is very knowlegeable in that topic.
Did you ever get this plug to work?
Let me rephrase that, it disappeared off of WP will there be a updated plugin for this in the future or a working one now with the current buddypress
@wromradio http://modemlooper.me/buddypress-plugins/
anyway we can talk for a second by email. i read that i got a queston. im tom owner of WROM Radio in Detroit. my email is wromradio@gmail.com
@modemlooper can I a download link to the plugin, please?
@modemlooper I know it isn’t rocket science to know what the plugin will do but any chance you have a demo?
No, look at screenshots in plugin folder.
