Post approval (pun_approval)

PunBB 1.3 official extension

  • Status: stable
  • Current version: 1.1.0

General idea

This extension allows a forum administrator to control all new posts of the forum and decide whether they should be placed on the forum or not. It also allows the administrator to control all new registered users. When the extension is installed, the link “Show unapproved posts” will appear in the forum’s header, it will navigate the administrator to the page where all the posts added by users are waiting for approval. If a post is approved, it is added to the topic it was created in. If the administrator decides that a post is not appropriate for the topic it was added to, it can be easily deleted. If the option “Enable registration approval” in the admin menu is on, the link “Show unapproved registrations” will appear next to the post-approval link in the forum’s header. It provides access to the page where all new registrations are waiting for approval. The administrator can approve a new registration; in this case it will be completed. But if the admin decides that a user can not be registered on the forum for some reason, the registration can be deleted.
