AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
User Approval Manager is a category-leading WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. 2 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.
Pros
- +High average rating (5.0★) signals consistent merchant satisfaction
- +Published by Sotiris Rallios — established developer track record
Cons
- −Limited review base (2) — ratings can shift significantly with new feedback

How User Approval Manager works
User Approval Manager adds an approval layer to WordPress user registration.
When a new user registers, the plugin prevents immediate login and notifies the site administrator(s) by email. The administrator can approve or reject the user directly via action buttons included in the email.
At the same time, the user receives an automatic email informing them that their account is pending approval. Once approved, the user is notified and can log in normally.
This plugin is ideal for:
– Membership websites
– B2B platforms
– Private communities
– WooCommerce stores requiring verified customers
Features
Blocks login for newly registered users until approved
Sends notification email to up to two administrator email addresses
Approve or reject users directly from email buttons
Reset password button — use the {reset_password_button} placeholder in the User Approval Email to send new users a one-click “Set Password” link (respects custom login URLs and wp_lang)
Auto-approval checkbox — optionally auto-approve new users so they can log in immediately without manual approval
Sends automatic status emails to users (pending / approved)
Simple configuration via WordPress admin
Lightweight and focused — no unnecessary complexity
