Conversation Block :: Approving Messages

Permalink 1 user found helpful
Is there a way to disable automatic approving of messages submitted through the conversation block?

I see that in the dashboard all conversations are listed and it shows a thumbs up as being approved, but I don't see any way to unapprove one if desired.

I'm looking for a way to not have the message approved until manually done so.

It looks like the c5.6 guest book block had this feature: http://legacy-documentation.concrete5.org/editors/in-page-editing/b...

How to require approval of conversation messages: This functionality is already built into the concrete5 core. Enabling it is simple.

You must go to System & Settings -> Conversations -> Conversation Permissions:
Click "Add Message to Conversation" to edit the settings, click the Details tab and under Guest select "Pending" as the default value for newly submitted messages.

I've attached a screenshot.

To approve a message, simply go to the main Conversations page in the dashboard, click on an unapproved message and in the menu that appears, the option for approving the comment is there.
