    Where did this post go?

    Problem resolved. Read post #4 here.

    Would be nice if a popup or something warned of this when posting a message.
    eg: "New member posts are moderated and will be not be posted for a few hours."
    or something along those lines.....

    Yes, I am a new user and posted the same reply 3 times as I thought something was wrong with the forum. My posts would not appear. Later in the day all three posts were posted when only one should be.

    Some posts need to get approved BEFORE they get posted. I have to manually approve the posts.
    Thank You,

    Yes, I understand know, but as the previous poster suggested perhaps a popup box that alerts the user the post is waiting the approval of a moderator. Right now the new user can keep posting the same message over and over again thinking something is wrong with the forum.

    Thanks for the reply and the great forum Paul,

    I understand now why this has happened, and it is a very good idea.
    After the initial confusion I had while trying to post I thought that there may have been something like this in place, but after looking everywhere I could (FAQ, Guidelines etc.) found nothing to confirm it.

    Some sort of notification or warning would be nice.
    Possibly in the registration confirmation 'Action Required' email to new members?
    A popup after an attempt to post would be the ideal solution.

    Thanks,
    Simo
