In Yahoo groups, as a moderator, how can I allow some people to post without moderating their messages?

Question

I am a moderator in a yahoo group. My question is how can I allow some members messages/posts to go straight through without me having to approve them, and at the same time moderate everyone else's posts. I just have two members who I'm allowing to post and I don't want them to have to wait for me to approve everytime they post something. I also don't want to make them moderators. Can I do that? Anyone know how?

Thanks for any help!

Answer 1

moderation or unmoderation is done per member

1) locate said member is members list- click edit membership below their ID- Posting Messages: Override: This member's posts are always moderated (Edit) <-- click the edit

next page choose either

* Messages posted by this member are not moderated.

* Messages posted by this member are moderated.

click save changes

2) How do I make someone a moderator of my group?

Sure find their membership in the members section (left column).  Click edit under their i.d.  Scroll down and follow the prompts.  You'll see overide and some other stuff to click but it's pretty easy.
