    This is something I’m trying to go for.

    I’ve searched multiple times for something like this on your forum, and google, but having short luck.

    All I’ve see is topics about you guys “thinking of adding this feature”.

    Basically, any user can login and change the email address of the account on file, but when they do so, the email they change it to can be either fake, or wrong, and their is no confirmation, or email stating the email is changed. This is something my type of site will not be able to be okay with, as we will need additional security to assure quality and satisfaction from my customers.

    So, back at it, if there was an option to add additional security to changing an email, that would be great.

    Wondering if maybe someone might be able to help utilize the code listed in the link above (bottom of the page), we might be able to make our own email-verification function!

    – Thanks.

    Hi @shabbaj

    You can disable the Email address field on the account page so users won’t be able to change it.

    Please go to WP Admin > Ultimate Member > General > Account > Allow users to change e-mail.

    But let me try create a code snippet for your site based from the WP core function send_confirmation_on_profile_email

    I have found an alternative.
    miniOrange OTP works pretty well with it.

    I will also take into consideration your snippet as well, considering I will be having multiple forms and this plugin only works for Account Info page and Profile page forms.

    Hi @shabbaj

    I haven’t got the chance to provide a snippet as we are busy replying to support backlogs. I have added this in the feature request list and hopefully work on this in the next couple of weeks.
