Hi guys. i want to do settings so all registered members posts will
have to be approved by admin / staff before they go live.

I'm getting a few spammers and want to set it so the posts must be approved.

can you tell me where in ACP i do this.
Ive been browsing ACP and cant see the settings to do this.

ACP >> Users & Groups >> Groups >> Registered >> Forums and Posts tab >> Moderation Options >> Check the boxes to enable them

[.m.]

Edit: delayed response

it is a group based permission.

admin panel >> users & groups >> groups >> registered >> Forums and Posts (tab) --> Moderation Options
* Moderate new posts?
* Moderate new threads?
* Moderate new attachments?
* Moderate posts after they've been edited?

Yes i have done this

ACP >> Users & Groups >> Groups >> Registered >> Forums and Posts tab >> Moderation Options >> Check the boxes to enable them
check marked
Moderate new posts?
Moderate new threads?
Moderate new attachments?
and i signed in with my registered test account
and i can still post with out needing approval.

any one any ideas on what might be happening that these permissions are not happening for me.

Hmmm... looks like, somehow the forum permissions takes precedence over the group permissions...

ACP >> Forums & Posts >> Select the forum >> Permissions tab >> Registered >> Moderation tab >> enable them and check

Yes that worked,
I had to re set all custom permissions i had set and re-do.
Thank god, now the spammers and fools will have to find another site to spam
