I am brand new to WPforo. I had a professional web designer set up my forum. They are new to WPforo as well. We have set up several categories in the forum where registered members can post. Currently they get a message stating the their post must be approved. I am required to approve every post. I DO NOT want to be required to approve or disapprove posts. Every registered member should have their post instantly post. What setting needs to be changed? 

Thank you for your help!!!

Hi @s4m-admin,

Navigate to Dashboard > wpForo > Settings > Spam Control and check User is New (under hard spam control) during first [X] posts option

I thought it was fixed but it is not. Every post still requires my approval. I do not want monitoring on any category or forum. How to I get it turned off? Any ideas? All of the spam settings for new members are set at zero.

@tutrixThanks for your suggestion. I am trying to stop the need for approving posts. I don't want to change the login procedure. This is a members only, not for the public, forum. Only logged in users can use the forum, but I do not want to be the monitor for their posts.

@tutrix Thanks! I changed that setting. I will wait for one of the members to post and see if it works. Thanks again!
