And a ton of people in exactly the same boat as me… glad to know I’m not alone … wish I knew php and all that stuff…

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-registration-options/ – I found this which looks perfect…. it even got a write up here http://wpmu.org/a-must-have-plugin-for-buddypress-to-stop-splogs-dead-in-their-tracks-and-create-instant-community/

but sadly it doesnt work with 1.5…

Hi Paul,

Thanks. Do you know of anything that does… even its hacky? I’m very, very desperate. I’ve scoured the forums – tried every plugin under the sun… but nothing works…

Even if I can just intercept the email – and direct it to the admin, and replace the text on the thankyou page to say “An admin will approve you” or something like that…

Thanks,
Rob
