Add moderation for new vendor registration (without listings)

When someone fills out the /register-vendor page, there is the ability to turn on moderation for submission of new vendor request. We do not plan on making extensive use of listings in our marketplace, just vendors and requests, so the current solution that allows admins to moderate the 1st listing will not work for us.

Note that this is critical, as we cannot have people creating vendor profiles with offensive images or text. Currently, in order to prevent this unacceptable scenario, we have to turn off direct registration and replace the vendor registration page with an application form, and then turn it on to allow registration.

Thank you!

I would also be interested in this, along with automatically assigning the Vendor role, without having to make the listing.
We are about to start a second HivePress-based site, and this feature will definitely be needed to make it work

Hi,

Thanks for the feedback. This feature is already in our backlog and we will consider adding it in future updates.
