UX Comment

I thought I’d seen this complaint elsewhere, but I can’t find it. I just did a g+ import and there are 1300 users in the approval queue with entries like this:

From this it’s impossible to tell why the user needs approval, and worse, the only way to find out seems to be to select the username and do a search. Is there a reason not to have the username link to their profile? Or, better, provide something about the user to know what to do about it?

And also, I presume that “Reject” rejects the user and does Something Bad. How does one clear this and say that the user is OK?

Help! How do I fix this?

My inclination is to just remove them all from the approval queue. But I don’t know how to do that because in the user record I see:

 approved: true,
 approved_by_id: -1,
 approved_at: Fri, 29 Mar 2019 18:26:49 UTC +00:00,

So I guess this approval must be in some other table?

EDIT: This sounds a little like Needs Approval feature (Nothing to Approve) and SSO user unnecessary approval with 403 error.
