    right now users of all roles are being moderated after they register, and customers can’t login until their accounts have been approved. Is there a way to turn moderation off for customer user roles? or other user roles like administrators?

    Hi katsstar01, very quick reply here, as it were.

    The plugin shouldn’t be preventing the ability to log into the WordPress install as a whole, but it would prevent accessing, after logging in, the BuddyPress/bbPress areas if the “Private Network” option is checked. That would limit them to their profile in the social areas. Regardless of settings, they should be able to visit a “shop” area or read blog posts and such.

    The only way I could see this not being the case, is if the entire site is considered BuddyPress or bbPress areas and you have shop areas inside one of the two. That would be an edge case that we never tried or thought to address.

    customers that haven’t been moderated can visit the shop as well as other areas of the site. However, if a pending user tries to login through woo commerce’s login page or WordPress’s default login form they can’t get in. I’ve also noticed that they don’t display in the user’s page either until they are approved.

    Noted, but we don’t prevent logging in, even the pending users. We set some user meta, and check if is_buddypress() or is_bbpress() and if the user meta says they’re moderated, then we redirect them to their user profile in cases of private network. If you don’t have private network checked, then we simply hide BuddyPress and bbPress UI to prevent interaction.

    If something is going on at the login pages that prevents them from successfully getting authenticated, it’s likely something else outside our plugin handling that.
