not to be Ms Obvious but is `allow_new_registrations` unchecked by chance? clearly you have the `must_approve_users` setting enabled and i’m not sure how that is affected if registration is disabled. 🤔 i would think the registration setting would override any account creation though and disable it. no that makes no sense either…
