Users can see own moderated threads prior to approval
![]() Developer Last Online: Sep 2017 ![]() ![]() ![]()
On my forum, to prevent spam, threads from new users are checked for common spam keywords, including links. If any such keywords are found, the thread gets auto-moderated.
In order to prevent double-posting, I decided it was necessary for users to be able to see their own moderated threads in the forum listings before they get approved. Nobody reads the redirection message shown, so I hope that this will be more effective in preventing duplicates. Moderated threads from unregistered users will not be shown to those users. Open forumdisplay.php, Find:
Replace with:
Note: if you want to allow users to see their own moderated posts as well, see post #2. Download Now Only licensed members can download files, Click Here for more information. Show Your Support

Ok, in testing the product further, it seems moderated users can see their own posts, but not threads they started.
So it works for posts, but not for threads. Any suggestions on how to fix this in the product? It would be nice to keep it as a product rather than having to edit the source files directly as before... No members have liked this post.

Saves me getting all sorts of double-posts because people don't realize their moderated posts won't show up until approved (and of course they never read the message they get that tells them the same)... ;-)

Yes, I know exactly what you mean...they post over and over and finally give up and usually don't return.
I'll check this out ASAP and post back. ![]()

I'll try the direct file modification again and see if that works. No members have liked this post.

I would guess some other add-on is interfering.

I changed:
TO:
Instead of what is shown in post #2. I have no idea if I've broken something else by doing it this way, but at least it works now... No members have liked this post.

Must be. Did the direct file mods, but had to do the post #2 change differently or I just get a blank page.

I will have to dig this up soon (currently working on a big project) and look into the issue you've brought up. ![]()
