XF 2.1 Moderating all messages before they appear

[Jon12345]

How do I set things up so that I have to moderate any messages before they appear on my forum?

Set the permission for the registered user group:

Fabulous, all set. Thanks!

Fabulous, all set. Thanks!

In addition, I set up a promotion to graduate a user into a usergroup that doesn't have the restriction, after X post count.

I also hide the message to the user that his/her post is moderated, that irritates people and typically they just leave way too often.

To get rid of that, put this line in your extra.less file:

.messageNotice--moderated {
    display: none;
}

It's only for a temporary situation. Thanks all the same.
