Hi SVTX,
That’s very kind, love to hear you like it ??
One solution can be based e.g. on a “Pending Review” group which you wold create and let users join by the click of a button. You could receive a notification when someone has clicked the button (which effectively would add the user to the group) and then you could review the whole profile of that user and decide to add the user to the “Pro” group or not. Steps:
1. Install and activate the Groups Notifications plugin, it’s free and you can download it here: https://www.itthinx.com/plugins/groups-notifications/
2. Under Groups > Notifications enable administrator notifications – you don’t need to check the box for Registered users and you don’t need to enable any notifications for the users themselves.
2. Create the “Pending Review” group.
3. Place the following shortcode on a page :
[groups_join group="Pending Review" submit_text="Enroll as a Professional Member"]
Now every time a user joins a group, your admin account will receive an email informing you about who has joined which group.
The one drawback I see to this solution is that you’ll get a notification every time a user joins a group, also for groups other than “Pending Review” but you can set up an email filter that looks for “Pending Review” in the subject or body and classify those in a separate email folder so it’s easier for you to recognize them (thinking Thunderbird for example).
I hope that helps as a solution …
