Description
Starting WordPress 5.3, WordPress added an e-mail verification step that will come into action about every six months. This step is to validate if the used e-mail address is still in use. On sites with large amounts of users, this can be a very handy feature. On sites with just one user, it can be considered an unwanted nag. This ultra lightweight plugin switches this feature off.
Credits
We thank the WordPress team for introducing these checks in 5.3, knowing there are a lot of usecases where this check is important.

FAQ
-
Will this plugin slow down WordPress?
-
The plugin just introduces a single setting to WordPress in a single line of code. So no, it will not slow WordPress down.
-
Is this plugin compatible with update management plugins?
-
Yes. It has been tested by the guys over at Digishock.com and WebsiteNazorg.nl on various platforms.
-
What security considerations are there in using this plugin?
-
This plugin is handling no user or system input/output. It does nothing with the database. Limiting the code base is a security best practice.
-
Will there be future updates to this plugin?
-
Yes, we will release a new version every 10 months or so. A new version will not mean new code. It is just to avoid the plugin being marked as abandoned. New code will only be added if WordPress needs it.
