Hi @Dentrax, we update the verification status during a sync. Logging out and back in again should resolve it, refreshing usually just locks the page.

I agree that the behavior is a unfortunate, and a potential way to improve it would be to change the verification status if the user attempts to verify it again instead of showing the error message.

Gonna try implementing the improvement mentioned by @Hinton where if a user tries to send another verification code after already verified, it'll update the verification status and hide the banner.

Edit: Would it be jarring if the banner just disappeared? Is there a preferred way to notify the user that they were verified and that it was resolved?

Showing a success notification toast (instead of the error) while also hiding the banner perhaps?

Got a PR made for the issue. First time figuring out how to use local server, thought the setup was cool <3
