I've been going crazy trying to figure out how to make this work. So glad to find this solution. ryanmurray on "User Registration question - using an approval plugin" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/user-registration-question-using-an-approval-plugin#post-34217 Fri, 02 Sep 2011 08:07:28 +0000 ryanmurray 34217@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ I got this to work with 'New User Approve'. Create a hidden field called user status in your registration form and put in the value 'pending'. Go to the user registration add-on and add a new User Meta field with the hidden field you've just created. Call the new User Meta field 'pw_user_status' and now when someone registers they will drop into the 'Users Pending Approval' tab of the New User Approve plugin. redkite on "User Registration question - using an approval plugin" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/user-registration-question-using-an-approval-plugin#post-25754 Tue, 17 May 2011 16:27:27 +0000 redkite 25754@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Okay, thanks for checking.

I took a look specifically at the New User Approve plugin and unfortunately the Gravity Forms User Registration Add-on will not work with this plugin as this plugin relies on the user having been registered through the default WP registration page. redkite on "User Registration question - using an approval plugin" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/user-registration-question-using-an-approval-plugin#post-25654 Mon, 16 May 2011 22:08:41 +0000 redkite 25654@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ I'd like to upgrade to the Developer license to use the User Registration addon but have a question. I understand there's no built-in approval process and that you recommend having people sign up for one role without content access, then manually upgrade their role when approved. I'm wondering if the User Registration addon uses WP's core registration process so that I could use a plugin like New User Approve: <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/new-user-approve/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/new-user-approve/</a>. Or if GF uses some customized registration process so I couldn't do that. Any ideas?
