    Hello,

    I need to permit guest users (without a site access) to approve other members, if they receive the approval link to be clicked.

    At the moment when clicking an approval link as guest: You need to login as admin to activate the user.

    That’s cool for security reasons, but please add a filter on this line to permit dev customizations:

    public static function link_activate_user() {
    > if(current_user_can(‘manage_options’)) {

    Hello @mirkolofio,

    Thanks for writing to us. Unfortunately, providing such a hook to skip the capability check can pose security issues and expose the plugin to exploitation. We will try to have some alternatives available down the line, but it’s difficult to commit to any fixed timeline because thorough testing will be required before we are confident about a secure release.
