Hello, I’m not sure whether Bug is the correct category for this, but it seems to me that this is unintended behaviour.

We currently run a forum we’ve just set up, and one of our moderators complained to me that something is odd when a new user registers (they all have to be approved): There’s a notification “User is awaiting approval”, even after another moderator has already approved said user.

It’d seem to me that the system is intended to only display this notification if the user is _actually_ still waiting for approval, as the text indicates that.

In case this is not a bug, can this be moved to feature request? 😉

Perhaps user approvals should be moved from PMs to the flag notification bubble?
