Hi there,
I'm having trouble with EasySocial where a new user can sign-up and after confirming their email address can post straight away. I have tried to lock down all the settings so that a user can only post something if the site administrator approves their account but for some reason new users that SPAM are still getting through.

Any help would be greately appreciated.
Hi Michael,

Correct me if I'm wrong, do you mean you want to moderate the user's story posting? If yes, unfortunately, it is not possible at this point of time. Where this feature only can be use in cluster(group,page) currently.

I don't want new users that are not approved by an administrator to be able to post.

Hi Micheal,

You can enable the registration type to use https://www.screencast.com/t/3Bg1FJbUg require admin approval, where you need to approve the user first before they can access/post into your site
