 * Hi, is it possible to setup, which users (their posts) have to be moderated by
   admin before they are presented at forum? 
   I have more users setup in the forum,
   theior setup appears quite the same. But one of them is not able directly send
   a post, it is always waiting for my moderation / approval.
 * Is there any way to avoid this please?

 * Hi, I think my problem is different copmpare to the one at the link.
 * I have all members of the forum in one group, all of them looks set up the same
   way – All in group Customer, which is a Default one.
 * But only one of them, when writing a post, needs my moderation before going public.
   All others can write posts without moderator step. Can be something at the member
   setup level be set up differently?
 * many thx

 * Please make sure the user is not being considered a new user. For more information,
   visit: [https://wpforo.com/docs/wpforo-v2/settings/spam-protection/#user-is-new-under-hard-spam-control-during-first-x-posts](https://wpforo.com/docs/wpforo-v2/settings/spam-protection/#user-is-new-under-hard-spam-control-during-first-x-posts)
 * The user might be posting content identical to what they’ve posted before. However,
   this is just part of the wpForo spam control system. You can read more about 
   it: [https://wpforo.com/docs/wpforo-v2/settings/spam-protection/](https://wpforo.com/docs/wpforo-v2/settings/spam-protection/)

 * Many thanks! This could be the case 😉 – user is repeating his post in the same
   wording and therefore most probably spam protection set his posts to be approved
   by myself. I will contact him and then I will monitor if the problem persist.
