    Running a WordPress site is exciting but it also means you’re constantly battling spam registrations, fake accounts, and unwanted users. New User Approve works as a default WordPress registration system that does not let anyone sign up and instantly gain access. Because its your responsibility as a site owner as exactly who’s allowed into your site before any user log in.

    New User Approve comes is a powerful WordPress user approval plugin that puts you in full control of your community, membership site, online store, or private portal. With this manual user approval plugin, you can moderate user registration, protect your content, and keep your website free from unwanted registration requests.
    Whether you want to restrict user access before approval, prevent fake user signups, or simply make sure every new member is legit, New User Approve makes it easy, professional, and efficient.

    ⭐ Why You Need New User Approve ⭐

    Imagine running a membership site, community forum, or private business portal where quality and security matter. The last thing you want is spam bots flooding your database or strangers sneaking into confidential areas.

    New User Approve helps you:
    Stop spam registrations and fake accounts before they ever log in
    Verify user identities by reviewing each signup manually
    ⚡ Maintain complete control over who becomes part of your community
    ⚡ Create a safe, trusted space for your members or customers

    Unlike generic WordPress plugins that simply hide login pages, New User Approve adds a true user verification before approval process. It gives you confidence to grow your site without worrying about who’s lurking behind those new user accounts.

    🛠 How It Works

    Here’s how New User Approve, your go-to member approval plugin, transforms your registration flow:

    When someone registers on your WordPress site, you’ll receive an email alert. You can then decide to approve or deny their account. The plugin automatically emails the user to let them know the outcome.

    👁If approved, the user receives their login details and can access your site immediately.
    👁If denied, they’ll be kept out—and can’t even log in.
    👁Pending users stay locked out until you make a decision.

    This makes it simple to restrict user access before approval and ensure only the right people become part of your online community.

    Already have users on your website? No problem.

    Existing users stay approved automatically when you install New User Approve. You can also change someone’s approval status at any time, with easy search tools for managing pending, approved, or denied users.

    • 📜 Generate unique codes manually or automatically
    • 💳 Give those codes to users so they’re auto-approved upon registration
