I have followed the directions on https://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/article/user-registration-add-on/ and I'm trying to create a custom user registration form.
I have a more complicated form I'd like to get working that includes several custom meta fields, however, in an effort to get things working I've simplified the form to just a "Name" field, "Email", and "Username".
The form:
The settings in Forms -> User Registrations:
The settings in Forms -> Settings -> User Registrations
The contents of the Test Contact page:
I've confirmed that user registration is enabled, yet whenever I submit the form, I get the email and I see it listed as an "entry", however the user is not created.
With "Enable user activation" + "manually" options, you will need to activate each user in the WordPress Admin Dashboard.
