README
Verified
A verified badge for Flarum users, the way X does it.
Verified adds a blue check next to usernames everywhere they show up: posts, profiles, user cards and mentions. Users apply from their own settings page, admins approve or reject from a dedicated panel, and the badge follows the user around the forum from then on.
It can be as light or as strict as your community needs. Run it as a simple request and approve flow, or require an identity document with each request, encrypt the uploads with a public key and let a retention policy purge the files later.
What it does
- Blue verified badge wherever the username is rendered, with an optional hover tooltip showing who verified and when
- Verification requests from the user's settings page, reviewed in an admin panel
- Optional identity document upload, with public key encryption and configurable retention
- Avatar lock for verified users, so the face people trust does not change silently
- Custom badge SVG, size and color if the default does not match your theme
- Notifications by alert and email when a request is handled
- Plays nice with
flarum/gdprfor export, anonymization and erasure
Installation
composer require ramon/verified php flarum migrate php flarum cache:clear
Then enable Verified on the Extensions page. Settings, permissions and the request queue all live in the admin panel, each option explained in place.
Good to know
- Documents are wiped on the schedule you choose. The nightly
verified:purge-documentscommand takes care of it, no cron of your own needed. - Encryption is opt in: set a public key in the settings and uploads are sealed before they touch the disk. The private key never goes in the database.
- Everything the frontend does goes through the
/api/verified/*endpoints, so verification can also be automated from outside.
