Question

As a moderator, how do I edit the message rules? I want to change so I don't have to approve first posts.

Answer 1

Sign in to your group.

Click on Management.

In the Group Settings area, click on Messages.

Click on Edit located to the right of Posting and Archives.

In the Moderation column, select "Unmoderated"

Click "Save Changes" at bottom or top of page.

You would have to manually edit the memberships of all members who are currently moderated including New Members.  This is how to do that:

Sign in to your group.

Click Members and locate the member you want to unmoderate.

Under the member's name, click on "Edit Membership"

Underneath Membership Privileges and to the right of Posting Messages, click on "Edit".

Toward the bottom, select "Messages posted by this member are not moderated".

Click Save Changes.  Repeat for each moderated member.
