TIP:
The first messages and mails are the default ones in your language/xx-XX/xx-XX.com_user.ini file, as if the plugin was not published.
You may want to change slightly the message for the user to reflect the new way of registration.
the token is
REG_COMPLETE_ACTIVATE=[...]. //add here in your language: An admin will then verify your mail and approve your registration.
and also change the content of the mail sent to the user in the same file
SEND_MSG_ACTIVATE= //change there
After activation you may login...etc.
by
After approval by an administrator, you will be able to login...etc.
Then, the mails and messages depends on the plugin ini file.
When the user clicks on the activation link, a new message is displayed telling the user that an admin has to approve his registration.
At the same time an e-mail is sent to the admin letting the choice to activate the user or not.
If the admin activates the user, a new mail is sent to the user letting the user know that login is now possible.
WARNING:
This plugin should NOT be used with Jomsocial!
If it was, the site would be vulnerable.

I notice in the final approved confirmation email it has the url in the subject and the site name in the body of the message. if these two could be reversed it would be better I think, but either way this works great and provides exactly the user approval function I wanted.

had a little problem not receiving admin email but fixed the admin user to Receive System E-mails and worked fine! Real thanks, this is very important for a WoW-guild website, since i dont want everyone to just register and read our private forums :)

I cannot recommend this plugin highly enough. It's highly effective and extremely easy to install. As a complete newb I was bewildered by the write-up but simply downloaded and installed it and it was up and running in no time. Top marks and a big thank you to the developers.

This is exactly what I needed for my community oriented site. Can't thank the authors enough.
One minor caveat is approval e-mail is being sent with 'From' as 'Nobody'. I tried to fiddle with the plugin a bit, but can't seem to get it right...

I just wanted a simple solution to handle approval of registration requests... this was the answer. I'm a newbie to Joomla and had no problem at all installing and changing user messages as needed. Thanks!!

This fills a big gap in the standard Joomla registration facilities. It is very simple to implement and works as advertised.
Many Thanks!
Many Thanks!

This extension should become part of the next Joomla release. It's extremely simple to use, developer support is fast and friendly - the kind of extension everyone wants to use. I use it as a simple way to keep spammers and non-authorized users off our nonprofit org. site. We have several hundred users, and checking our membership lists against attempted registrations is very easy now.
Great work! Thank you!
Great work! Thank you!
We're all waiting for it, hope it will be added to next releases,
just add "administrator must approve your login" in the mail sent to users and it will be perfect !

Just install and activate and it works well, just need to change some wordings in com_user.ini
I saw many people ask for this. The approval procedure was great, just that I'm using Trad-Chinese and don't know where the content in the email was hiding, wan't to change some wording

Easy to do, edit the file zh-TW.plg_system_registrationapproval.ini
which is in your administrator/language/zh-TW/ folder
Use an utf8-aware text editor as Babelpad for Windows or Textwrangler for Macintosh to save the file utf8 encoded.
