Disable Email Verification Feature

By default, Email Verification is mandatory in the application. If you wish, you can disable the email verification feature by following the below three steps.

CAUTION

It is highly recommended not to disable the email verification feature to prevent fake and spammy registrations.

Step 1

Comment the Features::emailVerification() line from features array in the config/fortify.php file.

Before:

'features' => [
        Features::registration(),
        Features::resetPasswords(),
        Features::emailVerification(),
        Features::updateProfileInformation(),
        Features::updatePasswords(),
        Features::twoFactorAuthentication([
            'confirmPassword' => true,
        ]),
    ],

After:

'features' => [
        Features::registration(),
        Features::resetPasswords(),
        //Features::emailVerification(),
        Features::updateProfileInformation(),
        Features::updatePasswords(),
        Features::twoFactorAuthentication([
            'confirmPassword' => true,
        ]),
    ],

Step 2

Remove MustVerifyEmail contract implementation from the User class by modifying the app/Models/User.php file.

Before:

class User extends Authenticatable implements Wallet, MustVerifyEmail

After:

class User extends Authenticatable implements Wallet

Step 3

Finally, comment the MustVerifyEmail contract from the imports in the app/Models/User.php file.

Before:

use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\MustVerifyEmail;

After:

//use Illuminate\Contracts\Auth\MustVerifyEmail;

If you wish to enable the email verification again, do the opposite of the above steps.
