This is still happening, and lately it seems to be more like 90% of the time. It was happening much less frequently when I first reported it.

Continuing the discussion from [Newly approved members remain visible after approval](https://meta.discourse.org/t/newly-approved-members-remain-visible-after-approval/27636):

> click the checkbox next to the new person  
> click Approve at the bottom of the screen  
> dismiss the congratulatory dialog box  
> View that the user is still listed.Expected: that the account is no longer visible
> 
> refresh the page and the user will no longer be listed (as the approval was carried out successfully)

This has been happening every time lately.

Perhaps worse if there’s one person I don’t approve, but I’ve had it happen as I approve the sole pending user.

So it’s just a UI issue where the UI does not refresh properly but the action was carried out? I’m not quite clear.

That’s correct, the ui doesn’t refresh to clear the user who was just approved.
