Re: Mass update of moderation status #moderation

 

davew,

When my tiny group was migrated, no-one was moderated as we were a private, on all group.
However upon migration, I immediately got 'Moderator' messages to alert me. I checked membership and found all other members than myself were 'New' and awaiting moderation. This appears to be the default format.

That can be the default for members who join on their own or accept an invitation - controlled by the New Users Moderated checkbox in the Spam Control section of the group's settings.

However I recently transferred three groups and can attest that the members retained their Y!Group posting Privilege, except for myself and another owner who were already in the Groups.io group. None of them transferred in with the NuM Privilege.

Not such a bad thing, simply check the 'All' box at the top and changed to UnModerated. Problem solved.

I do not recommend setting any members (maybe a very select few) to the Override - Not Moderated privilege. Use Default Post Policy instead. That way you can use the Moderated checkbox in the Spam Control section of the group's Settings page to stop a flame-war or other disruption in its tracks.
?
Shal
