    Hi,
    we are planning to use the plugin and I would like to know whether admin approval for user submitted locations can be disabled on a map.

    Furthermore, I see there is a email notification as an option but is it possible to request email for every submission ?

    Thanks for your time

    Hi,

    Thanks for reaching out! Yes you can disable the admin approval for registered users. The feature is called “auto-publish” and you can enable it in the settings.

    The email notification works as follows: If a user activates “notify by email” in the form he will be notified as soon as his location proposal has been approved.

    From the admin perspective: You will see a notification icon in the WordPress Backend that indicates the number of currently pending locations. If you want to get notified by email when a new location proposal is incoming then you could use the plugin “Post Status Notifier Lite” to do this.

    Hi,
    thanks for your reply.
    So I understand auto-publish is not possible for visitors ? And for registered users it is limited to “edit post” capabilities ? Is there a way to be more permissive ?

    Thanks again for your help

    The “edit posts”-capability is the lowest possible capability to ensure it is not bots that publish posts.

    However, there are a couple of users that have asked for this feature. So I will try to find a way to make it possible. It could probably be an option with a security note attached to it or a captcha integration. Do you have ideas?

    Well that would be great and a captcha would do I think.
    To be more specific about our case, our user are paying subscribers of our online newspaper, and it is a quite good community, so moderate a posteriori is not a problem.
