How to hold new users for approval?

   HIi folks,

   New BBpress user here.

   I have a sensitive forum (political) and Id like to be able to approve users when they register.

   I have found a plug to hide forums from non-registereed users.

   The only plug I found that comes close to what I want is out of date.

   Surely this is a simple thing? Can anyone point me in the direction of a plug in that would allow me to approve new users? (I have searched)

   Any help gratefully appreciated, sincerely.

   Thanks!

   Taoli

   What plugin did you find that was out of date? Maybe it can be updated.

   Not overly, its not inherantly how bbPress (or WordPress really) works, as Moderation (or lack of tools i order to fascilitate this properly) is really one of bbPress's major downfalls.

   That said, I typed in "approve" to the plugin search and found these plugins on the first page:

   Approve User Registration
   http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/approve-user-registration/

   BB Moderation Hold
   http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bb-moderation-hold/

   Zaerl Visibility
   http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/zaerl-visibility/

   I've not read their descriptions fully, but the sound like they do the job you're after.
