Yahoo Groups message settings messed up.?

Question

My private group was originally set for first post moderated. It continually queued the same members for approval. I changed it to all members can post (it's a private group anyway) and the posts STILL queue for approval. What's up with that? This discourages participation and makes me look like some tyrannical control freak. Is this a known bug Yahoo just doesn't want to fix? It's been going on for some time now.

Answer 1

Have you changed all the members who were originally moderated  to no moderation?  You would  have to find them on your members list then click edit membership then scroll down to  override  click edit and change them to use current group settings then click save changes.

Answer 2

it's no bug.

left tabs on homepage click management- under group settings click messages- next page Posting and Archives (Edit) <-- click the edit- 3rd column Moderation check either new members OR Unmoderated - click save changes-

REMEMBER

this will only affect those who join after this setting change. members now prior to this remain on the previous setting that you had, lets say no moderation.

ALSO

these members stay moderated until you individually reset each one and here's how (this is also how you'd moderate a member who needs it)

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.
