I am very curious how a user who just signed in at a Registered User was able to submit a "Pending" blog for submissions.

I had intended the settings to NOT allow anybody to create a blog unless then are in my bloggers group which is managed through EasySocial.

This is the first time I have ever seen this. I have NOT deleted this so that you can see it.

The users name is Erica Montes. with a username of EricaMontes.

If you go to the EasyBlog administration you will see one post in Pending. I would like to know how it got there. :-)

Do I have to change some more settings. The idea is that nobody can submit a blog unless they are in the bloggers group.

Thanks for any insight into what I might have done wrong.

I already checked in your site, it seems like this user "EricaMontes" is under 'Registered user' group which allow user submit the blog post from your site, you can check my attached screenshot below, this is what you configure from your ACL setting.

If you wouldn't like to allow "Registered" user group to submit new blog post from your site, you have to disable this "Allowed To Write New Post" option from your ACL setting, so it will not display that 'pen' icon from toolbar for those registered user.
