Thanks pinpin. Where can I find the moderator access panel? I don't see it in my profile page, but maybe that's because it's the mobile version.

Mine is right below the date and time, on the left side. You may have to use the desktop version if you can't see it.

And thanks, pinpin, for the new feature. I just had to delete a post and ban a spammer though, and I'm not sure why he/she wasn't put through the moderation filter before the post made it onto the board?

Yes, seems it does not work fully out of box, I will try to investigate more for new users

Thank you, you should have rights to do moderation also.

I think, I have enabled first posts to be only allowed after moderator approvals.

Lets wait for next new user and confirm it works

No new cases for now guys? I am wondering if new users can post now with those approvals,

I have also enable e-mail verification routing for new users. Don't have spare e-mail account to check it works well, if any of you have

I just found another spam post, but it was successfully stopped by the moderation feature, and I banned the user. Hopefully, things will work well now.

Looks like user 'benniehep' who asked a question on this thread was a spammer. Deleted all posts and banned. It was one of those clever accounts where the posts look relevant but are actually nonsensical.
