New User Approve Pro

New User Approve Pro adds WordPress registration rules that determine which accounts wait for review and which can be approved automatically. It suits membership sites, communities, online stores, and private portals where administrators need to review new accounts.

How approval changes access

When someone registers, administrators receive an email alert and can approve or deny the account. The visitor receives an email about the decision. Approved users get their login details and can access the website; pending and denied users cannot log in. Existing users remain approved when the extension is installed. Administrators can change account statuses later and use custom statuses to organize reviews.

Rules that determine registration

• Invitation codes: Restrict registration to invited people. Add codes manually, generate them in bulk, email them, or import them. Codes can have usage limits and expiry dates, and a valid code can automatically approve a registration.
• Email domains: Set trusted domains for automatic approval and blacklist generic or suspicious domains.
• User roles: Select roles for automatic approval in the plugin options.
• Registration deadlines: Close registration at a specified date or time, or after a set number of signups. People with a valid invitation code can still register after the limit.

What follows an approval decision

Customize email notifications for users and administrators, suppress denial notifications when preferred, and format emails with HTML. You can also tailor messages shown above the login or registration form and messages for pending or denied users.

Approved users can request a role change through a shortcode or account page. Administrators manage requests in a dedicated area.

Extended Zapier triggers cover users becoming approved, denied, or pending, as well as automatic approval through a role, email domain, or invitation code. Connect these events to services such as Gmail, Sheets, and Slack.

Where administrators review registrations

A dedicated mobile app lets administrators review complete user profiles, approve or deny registrations with a tap, and receive push notifications for new signups.

Setup for your registration process

Install New User Approve from the WordPress Plugins area and activate it. Then configure notifications, approval rules, invitation settings, deadlines, and role-request behavior to match your site's process. The documentation covers installation, configuration, and troubleshooting.
