We have just started using wp foro for the forum for my membership site.
As only my members are able to access the forum, I would like members to be able to post topics and posts without the need for moderation. Can you please let me know which item I need to tick in the Usergroups area.
NB It would be REALLY helpful if you had a page which listed all the different items and exactly what they mean. Those of who are not techie and are unfamiliar with using forums struggle with the terminology.
For example, I suspect that I probably need to tick the 'Front - Can pass moderation' item but how can I be sure that that is what this means? Maybe it means something else? I don't know.
Thanks
Hi @tessashepperson,
1. In Forums > Usergroups admin page edit all Usergroups and enable/check the "Can pass moderation" permission.
2. In Forums > Tools > Antispam admin page set low suspicion level for topic and posts:
- Spam Suspicion Level for Topics - 10
- Spam Suspicion Level for Posts - 10
Also, I'd recommend setting 1 or 2 the "User is New (under hard spam control) during first X posts" option in the same Forums > Tools > Antispam admin page.
