I’m looking for verified user feature like we see on Twitter. that blue icon. Is there any plugin which has that functionality?
thanks!
The discussion revolves around implementing a “verified user” feature similar to Twitter’s blue icon. sat is looking for a plugin to achieve this functionality.
Multiple users suggest using a group to facilitate this feature, with ChrisBeach and nexo sharing their approaches. They recommend creating a “Verified” group, adding an avatar flair, and optionally a title.
However, sat encounters issues implementing this solution, with the icon not displaying on user profiles despite setting up the group and icon. pfaffman points out that the group must be set as the primary group for the flair to show, which resolves the issue for sat.

You’d need to add a user custom field and then create a theme component that would create the styling you want when that field had whatever value you chose to mean verified.
On my forum we facilitate this via a group, which is set to the primary group of all its members, and which changes the user’s title to “Verified” and grants them trust level 3

Optionally, you could use an emoji in the user title if you wanted. Example:
Yeah. Something that assigned group membership, perhaps via api is probably what to do.
At Blinqer, we create a group called “Verified” and add an avatar flair and optionally you could add a title.
We add users we want to be “verified” to this group and voila:
@ChrisBeach, @nexo, @pfaffman thank you very much! I will try this solution.
@nexo somehow this is not working for me. I removed all plugins from my site and also theme components.
icon is shown in admin settings but not on user profiles. I do see only title on user profile but not icon. I created verified group, added below icon and set title as a verified…all other settings are default. Am I missing any setting?
This is how user profile looks…no verified icon
It has to be the primary group for the flair to show.
thanks @pfaffman, I missed that
it is working now.
