Hello,

There isn't such kind of feature within Toolset plugin:
users to be approved and not become a registered user straight away

As a workaround, you can setup a lower user role + a higher user role
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/managing-wordpress-admin-capabilities-access/

After new user registered in your website, setup them as lower user role, then administrators can upgrade(approve) those user to higher user role manually.

This ticket is now closed. If you're a WPML client and need related help, please open a new support ticket.
