gnu-social/plugins/RequireValidatedEmail/README.md

This plugin disables posting for accounts that do not have a validated email address.

Example:

  addPlugin('RequireValidatedEmail');

If you don't want to apply the validation equirement to existing accounts, you can specify a date users registered before which are exempted from validation.

    addPlugin('RequireValidatedEmail', [
        'exemptBefore' => '2009-12-07',
    ]);

You can also exclude the validation checks from OpenID accounts connected to a trusted provider, by providing a list of regular expressions to match their provider URLs.

For example, to trust WikiHow and Wikipedia users:

    addPlugin('RequireValidatedEmailPlugin', [
        'trustedOpenIDs' => [
            '!^https?://\w+\.wikihow\.com/!',
            '!^https?://\w+\.wikipedia\.org/!',
        ],
    ]);

Todo:

• add a more visible indicator that validation is still outstanding
• test with XMPP, API posting
