ExpertHive template - Validation Emails

I have reached the point where I want to test new members adding themselves and their details and receiving a validation Email.

How are emails managed within the ExpertHive template.

My question is related to the ExpertHive template.
The communications between listings and people interested in them appears to be via a message input. I assume that this communication happens via email.
How do I set this email system up? Do I need an external email system or will ExpertHive handle this?

Hey,

I can’t help you with your question, but I think you shouldn’t post your license key here publicly. It could be used by unauthorized users. From what I understand, you have to paste it into your WordPress page under HivePressSettingsIntegrations.

I removed it thanks for that tip !

Hi,

The Messages feature is built-in, so both vendors and users will receive messages in the their dashboards.

Ahh ok - so its done by dashboard?

Is there any need for emails? Such as validating the email when the member joins?

Hi,

It works in the dashboard (i.e. for all registered users). To register on a website, users have to indicate their email. If you want, you can enable the email verification in the HivePress > Settings > Users section.

Thanks again. One last question, forgive my lack of knowledge. When I create my website with ExpertHive and WP - do I get an email address linked to my domain? e.g. support@weddingexperts.com or anything like that? If not, how do I get one?

Hi,

If you are using a hosting provider, you will most likely have a default email. To set up your email, please see this documentation: How to set up emails - HivePress Help Center

P.S. If you purchased a theme or extension, please enter the license key in the forum profile settings, this will enable the Premium Support badge and ensure a 24-hour turnaround time.
