All of a user's posts are Unapproved

[deadpool809]

I have a new user on my site, assigned to the Registered Users Usergroup only. Every post he makes is "unapproved" and I can't figure out why this is.

I can't figure out for the life of me why this is. I have poured through the settings, and I can't find anything to turn off to make this behavior stop. Other registered users are not similarly affected.

Any suggestions on how I can fix this?

Make sure the permission "Skip Moderation for Posts" is set to Yes under Channel Management -> Channel Permisions. Edit the Registered Usergroup for the Home Channel. If you have customized the usergroup for other channels, you will need to edit the permissions on them as well.

Tried that - unfortunately it didn't work. It looks like the real culprit was Akismet. I have no idea what criteria they were using, but there wasn't anything remotely spammy about his posts. No links, no weird language, complete sentences - totally illogical. I'm surprised - I've used them on Wordpress sites for years, and never had that kind of false positive.

You can put him in a usergroup that doesn't check for spam if you trust the user. The permission is "Exempt posts from Spam checking."
