When I add new members to the group the advanced settings is set to default settings.? Default settings do not allow for people to post, so I have to pick over ride moderation even though we don't moderate posts.

I can't find where you can change the Advanced settings or default group settings.

I am very new to this group system, I ran a yahoo group for years.

Thanks!

?Hello,

We early adopters have been extremely demanding and there are many tweaks in order to get what we want! So yes, it is a little complicated but I think you will be able to do what you want.

Here’s a thread talking about new users - not absolutely sure it means transfers from YG. And the key message:

“ALL new users are moderated in your group, including you. Go into your settings and check the number (1, 2, 3, or 4) in the "new users moderated" setting. That is the number of posts from each member that need to be approved before they are unmoderated.”

Go to your Groups.io homepage.
Click on Admin on the left menu.
That opens a list of tools including Settings.
Click on Settings.
Scroll down until you get to Spam Control.

Lots of other tweaks here too.
Be sure to save settings.

Be sure to look at the help and the Group Managers Forum Wiki.

I recognize that as a quote from a post of mine, and unfortunately, it was quoted out of context. I was addressing someone who had specifically set their group to NuM. It is not the case that all new members in any group are moderated by default. It depends on the group’s settings.

Whoops! Sorry, J.

You must have one of the options set on this screen, right?
And that’s where you check.

w0mu,

Default settings do not allow for people to post, ...

I can't find where you can change the Advanced settings or default
group settings.

o In the left column click Admin if necessary to show the Admin buttons
o In the left column click Settings
o Scroll down to the Spam Control section
o Uncheck Moderated
Note: one of the options in that section must be checked. So...
o Check New Users Moderated
o Under Unmoderate After select 1 (or a number you prefer)
o Scroll to the bottom of the page
o Click the blue "Update Group" button

If you don't want to have to approve new members then I recommend "New Users Moderated". When you check that box an Unmoderate After box opens up. Select a number that seems reasonable to you. If you leave it Not Enabled then you'll still be in the position of needing to manually change members' Posting Privileges.

With this setup the default group message moderation policy is unmoderated, but new members start off with the "Override: new user moderated" posting privilege. After you approve 1 (or the number you chose) of messages from that member that member will be automatically changed to "Default group policy", that is: unmoderated.

... so I have to pick over ride moderation even though we don't
moderate posts.

I recommend that you go back and switch the members you've set to "Override: not moderated" back to "Default group policy". Having changed the group policy (as above) their messages will remain unmoderated.
