The Approve New User plugin automates the user registration process on your WordPress website, adding a layer of approval to ensure better control over who can access your site.
Typically, registering users on a WordPress site is straightforward. When a new user registers, their information is added to the website’s database, and they receive an email with their login credentials. While simple, this process offers many opportunities for customization.
Introducing Approve New User – a new way to register users on your WordPress website. Here’s how it works:
User Registration: A new user registers on the site, and their ID is created. 
Admin Notification: An email is sent to the site administrators. 
Approval Process: An administrator can either approve or deny the registration request. 
User Notification: An email is sent to the user, letting them know if their registration was approved or denied. 
Login Credentials: If approved, the user receives an email with their login credentials.
Users will not be able to log in until they are approved. Only approved users will be allowed access, while those waiting for approval or who have been rejected will not be able to log in. This process is simple, straightforward, and effective.
Additionally, user status can be updated even after the initial approval or denial. Administrators can search for approved, denied, and pending users. Also, users created before the activation of Approve New User will automatically be treated as approved users.
Compatibility 
It works seamlessly with <a href="https://woocommerce.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">WooCommerce</a>, <a href="https://memberpress.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">MemberPress</a>.
