Approval emails [#2510584]

I created a registration form for potential partners.

When someone applies, he receives an automatic confirmation email that his
submission was successful.
What i would need is to be able to send emails also after they have been
approved (not all of them are approved) - with an automatic responder. So i would click on a button
"approved" and that person would get the email that he is approved.
Can you please suggest if there is such a module?

This is the sort of thing provided by the workflow module, but I doubt it supports webform submissions rather than node creation. I would search for a "webform workflow" module, if there is one. You may also need the Rules modules and a Webform Rules module, if they exist.

You can achieve with the latest dev something similar but not so integrated. You can now create a DISABLED email. Because it is disabled, it won't be sent when the submission is completed. The approver could then revisit the submission, click "Resend emails", select the email to enable it, and click SEND.

You or your developer could create a small custom module to do this for you using an "Approved" link. If there is no confirmation page, be sure to use a token in the URL to avoid a security vulnerability.

Thank you very much for your answer. Although this sounds very complicated to me, a developer (i hired) told me this would take him an hour or two tops. But thank you for your quick response.
