get username/user_id by author of post

Hey,

i googled for hours but couldn’t find the answer to the simple thing i need.

i just want to enable the verification badge as well on a post page beside the author meta.

Its a simple if statement, but it wouldnt work because i am not able to explain the statement how to check the UM user ID.

<?php the_author() ?> //shows author name

<?php if (is_verified(um_fetch_user( $post->post_author ))) {...

 //check if verfied and display badge if so. 

…thats a way i thought it would work, but it wouldnt.

I tried all those different variables a could think of…

um_fetch_user( $post->post_author )

um_user( 'ID' )

um_get_display_name( $user_id )

um_fetch_user( $post->post_author )

Thanks for help!
