    Hello User Registration Support,

    I am using User Registration by WPEverest and I would like to require manual approval for new users before they can log in.

    Could you please let me know:

    • Is there a built-in setting to disable automatic approval of new users?
    • Where can I find this option?
    • Also the first mail to user “Your Registration is Pending Approval” is not sending.

    Thank you for your support.

    Best regards,
    Aqif Aziz

    Hello @aqif123,

    Thank you for reaching out and for using our plugin.

    • Enabling Admin Approval

    Yes, this is a built-in feature available in the free version. To enable it, go to User Registration & Membership > All Forms > Registration Forms, edit your form, then navigate to Form Settings > General > User Approval and Login Option and select “Admin Approval”. Click Update Form to save.

    With this option selected, the registration will remain pending unless the site admin verifies and approves it.

    • Regarding the “Awaiting Admin Approval” Email

    The reason this email is not being sent is because the Admin Approval feature is not yet enabled on your registration form. Once you enable it using the steps above, the “Awaiting Admin Approval” email will be automatically sent to the user upon registration, informing them that their account is pending review.

    Please make sure the email is also enabled under User Registration & Membership > Settings > Emails > To User > Awaiting Admin Approval.
