Description
Network Pending Users Manager helps super admins manage pending signups (wp_signups) in WordPress Multisite from a dedicated interface in Network Admin.
It is designed for multisite operators who need a practical workflow to inspect signups, resend activation emails, regenerate activation links, activate accounts manually, delete signup entries, and keep traceability with logs.
Key features
- List and filter pending users from signup records (
wp_signups). - Resend activation email.
- Regenerate activation link.
- Activate signup directly from Network Admin.
- Delete signup entries.
- Copy/Open activation links from row actions.
- Logs and retention settings for operational history.
- Diagnostics tab with basic status information.
Important
- This plugin works only on WordPress Multisite.
- If your mail stack is misconfigured, the “Resend” action can complete without actual message delivery.
- The plugin does not send data to external services. Optional logs are stored locally and may include the performing administrator and IP address.

Why are activation emails not received?

The plugin triggers WordPress email functions, but delivery depends on server mail configuration (or SMTP plugin/service). Check SMTP setup, sender reputation, and mail provider/server logs.
-
Does this plugin work on single-site WordPress?
-
No. It is intended for Multisite only.
-
Does this plugin send data to external services?
-
No. All processing stays on your WordPress Multisite. If logs are enabled, action history is stored in a local database table.
