Guest posts are unmoderated

    It appears that once any guest user has had a topic moderated/approved then any guest user can create a topic without it being approved. Any suggestions on how this can be fixed?

    Thanks

    Looks like you found a bug! Thanks for pointing this out, we’ll add a fix into the next release.

    I’m not sure if this is the best fix, but I’ve overcome this issue by adding the following to /incs/moderation.php:

    // Always moderate guests
    if ( $post[‘post_author’] == 0 ) {

    $post[‘post_status’] = ‘pending’;
    return $post;

    }

    after the block that tests if the moderation type is set to ‘all’

    Glad that’s working for you. This is certainly the type of solution I was thinking of so the fix should still work for you once the next release is ready.

    I’ll mark this as resolved for now but get back in touch if you need to.
