    I currently have well over 1,900 pending users that appear to be from bots. I want to delete all 1,900 users, but am limited to just selecting 100 per page at a maximum. Is there some way to either change the default list view to 1,000 rows or “View All”?

    I looked in my user table in cPanel, and don’t see a table of pending users. Maybe I’m looking for the wrong term.

    Thanks in advance.

  • When a new user signs-up in WordPress the user is created. But there’s nothing in WordPress “out of the box” to approve/deny new users (like there is with say comments)

    Managing new users “pending approval” sounds like something that a 3rd party plugin is being used for.

    And to be able to build a mysql query that would delete all of those users pending approval would depend on which plugin is being used to manage the approval of new user sign-ups.

    If we’re just looking to increase the number of users returned per-page, we can use the “Screen Options” tab up at the top right of the /wp-admin/users.php page and increase the per-page limit to 200 so we can delete more at a time.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to respond. You led me to the correct admin page. For this issue (needing to mass-delete pending users), the term to consider from the Users Admin Menu, not the resulting display, is “Manage Signups”. On navigating to that link at /wp-“admin/users.php?page=bp-signups” I was able to change the number of views, which was set at 100. I was then able to change that number up to a maximum of “999”. And, that truly allowed me to delete 997 in one block.

    I love this forum because of the generous help I find from my WP Friends.

    Thank you again!
