Email Verification
How email verification affects access.
After registration
New contributors are sent to Email Verification before the review process can fully continue. Verification confirms ownership; Manager approval is still a separate step.
After login
If an existing account is not verified, login can still recognize the account and send you back to the verification page instead of the dashboard.
Resending a code
If a code expires or does not arrive, use the resend option. The page may apply a short cooldown before another code can be requested.
Changing the verification email
If the address is wrong, use the change-email option from the verification page. The new address receives a fresh code, and verification continues from there.
What verification does not mean
- It does not mean a Writer or Editor application has been approved.
- It does not unlock a Writer's full dashboard if the first-article workflow is still pending.
- It does not reset your password.
