Tell us what you are trying to do?
Send a verification email for content/post submission. Similar to a user registration that sends a verification email and requires the recipient to click on a link before the content is posted.
Just curious if it's possible or if I need to go outside of Toolset for this.
Is there any documentation that you are following?
Searching via Google, lots of conflicting info.. basically no
Is there a similar example that we can see?
Not off the top of my head.
There isn't such a built-in feature within Tooslet form, if you agree, we can take it as a feature request, our developers will evaluate it.
Currently there is a workaound, you can setup a form for creating wordpress user, click button "Auto-generate User Form", use option "Autogenerate Password", and setup a email notification, send the password to new user's email, see our document: https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/cred-user-forms-email-notifications/
Luo is on vacation. This is Minesh here and I'll take care of this ticket and try to help you further to achieve solution you were looking for. Hope this is OK.
If your email field is available within your form - you should select the option "Send notification to an email specified in the form field":
Regarding the the process of activation/pending there is no such feature exists, you need to manage that on your own. Maybe when user submit the post - you should set post status to be as draft and when email sent and user click on link - you should change the post status to publish.
