Can somebody tell me how my last posts need to be approved by a moderator?
A have posted some hours ago, and the post isn't online yet!

Yeah, good luck with that. I posted a response two this thread (http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=18283) almost two weeks ago and another one here (http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=18323) a couple of hours ago - neither one has shown up although OTHER replies which was written AFTER mine was has in the first thread. It happens to me all the time and I've pointed this out to the moderators several times - no change.

It seems to only apply to the PBP3 section of the forum and I honestly don't know why I keep wasting my time trying to help people here when my responses don't even make it on to the forum.

It actually kind of sucks when you invest your time trying to help others (which is what the forum is about) and the posts you write just gets discarded or whatever.

Well, I for one hope you don't give up. Your help, at least by me, is greatly appreciated.

Funny, I earlier today posted something to this section and it too has been delayed/not approved/whatever/not posted. If I don't see it by tomorrow I'll post it in a different section and see how fast it shows. Maybe there is something wrong with this section.

Again, stick with us. I can use your help.

The problem seems indeed it has something to do with the PBP3 section. Lester attention was drawn on this but I cannot understand why it was not solved.

Hope soon.

I have made some changes to the permissions of users with contributor status. I'd be interested to hear if this has helped the situation.

NOte that i just approved for posts that were in moderation. So they will now show up. That was a manual process. I'm interested in hearing if NEW posts are showing up without going into moderation.

Hi Lester,
I just started a thread in the PBP3 section and the message went thru without being moderated.
I can understand why there might be a need for moderation of new users but regulars ("contributors" or not with hundreds or thousands of posts). And since it only seems to apply to the PBP3 section of the forum I really don't see the need, but you're the boss so it's your call.

Anyway, thanks for looking into it.

/Henrik.
