    1-How do i search the list of requests by username

    Say someone registers and then they ask me to approve their account ? – do i always have to go through all the lists to find that particular user?

    Isn’t there a search feature somewhere, am i doing something wrong because i can’t find any

    2- how do i add an already approved/accepted user back to the unapproved list*

    (Please 1 more thing)
    3- i discovered users who have not been approved are already giving the regular wordpress user-id’s-

    Is there a way NOT to give an unapproved user a USER-ID ? ..because i have to take count of all members sequentially. And some may be spam accounts. How do i stop anyone who hasn’t been approved from getting a user-id?

    1. If you are referring to the listing on the admin-side, we don’t have that much functionality provided at the present time. We would need to research and investigate how to potentially implement this.

    I know I have this open issue for it, but haven’t done anything with it thus far https://github.com/WebDevStudios/BuddyPress-Registration-Options/issues/169

    2. Another one where it’s come up but haven’t done too much with it. https://github.com/WebDevStudios/BuddyPress-Registration-Options/issues/100

    There’s definitely code-based ways to handle, but nothing that’s UI based at the moment. If you’d like, I can provide a quick code snippet that could help.

    3. This one is going to be the part that I can’t do anything about, as our plugin is meant to only restrict access so the BuddyPress/bbPress areas of a given site, not the entire site as a whole. If a given user’s site has a standard blog area or an eCommerce shop, they should still be able to use those areas. On top of that, we store the moderated users’ moderation status as user meta, which requires them having activated their user, which brings in the user ID.

    Hello Michael, thank you for responding:

    1- on the “BP registeration options member-request” page , a search bar to search by username , ID or email. [I initially thought something was broken, but now i understand there isn’t any “search functionality” at all …which is a bit odd, considering how popular the plugin is ..but still no worries]

    2- On the regular wordpress users.-php list , for an unapprove/approve button, on each user [this would be alot cool because it would be possible to search for a user on the user.-php list ..so an admin can just approve or unapprove from right there.]

    Yes a snippet would be alright,

    But Would these be possible on the next version update ?

    3- about the user ID, yes okay, i understand you

    I know I’m planning for a 4.4.1 release here hopefully this week or maybe early next week but those are mostly some bug fixes and small edits.

    I also know that WebDevStudios is doing our annual “5FTF” (https://www.ads-software.com/five-for-the-future/) on Friday which would afford me some longer time to ponder and explore items 1 and 2 in greater detail. So at minimum I could at least map out how to potentially handle either one of them, or see how feasible it’d all be.

    Hello micheal, thank you,

    Would the 4.4.1 release
    Give options to the admin on the “users.-php list” to
    approve/deny -&- an option to put an approved user back on the un-approved LIST of “bp-registeration-options member requests” ?

    It may make the plugin alot easier to use

    Untill then …If you have another walk-around for any or both of the issues, ..please ?? help me out.

    No, the requests provided in this forum thread wouldn’t be included in that 4.4.1 release. Those are mostly going to be some new items that I managed to solve already or missed accidentally in previous releases.

    I still need to explore how to potentially handle your requests, and then actually implement/test.
