…and as I said, my question is what happens to the "P" after the new member posts the required number of posts. I'll try that in my test group right now and see if it goes away. If it does, this

Shal, It's incorrect to say that the "P" has nothing to do with new members. My group is set to "new members moderated" with the number of posts set to 1. I admitted a new member, whose status was

J, The way P works has nothing whatsoever to do with new members. You apply it manually, you remove it manually. That's all there is to it.[1] The posting privileges work exactly the same here as

Ro, I am not a stickler about group guidelines. Fact is members don't always remember the guidelines 3 weeks into the group , never mind 3 months into the group and I am ok with that. I just give

If the P never goes away, then I would call it more of a nuisance than a help. In the case of a new member who is set to be allowed to post, they're no longer a new member after x amount of posts. So

J, You must check the "New Users Moderated" box, and then enable the "Unmoderate after" in feature in your group's Settings before "NuM" will be applied to members when they join (it will not be

The P never goes away because you set them to Over ride - Not Moderated. If you change them to the group default, the P will go away. You can switch the group from Moderated to Unmoderated if need

Ro, no worries. That's not going to happen. New members will be allowed to read posts. J

Thats a matter of how one wishes the group to function. I dont moderate new members, I only moderate people who have not followed group rules in their postings. I have no desire to cut them off from

Shal, I'm still trying to check that it's all consistent. And I don't think it's 100% consistent yet. For example, you note the above designation NuM. However, the two members whose status i

Vickie, Yes, of course (if any member can, that is). The status badges I'm talking about refer only to posting privileges, not to what they can access. It sounds like you should simply not approve

You might as well unmoderate them if they are able to receive group messages and read the forum.. They don't have to participate with the forum, they can just contact the member directly to the

We would then need a separate designation, because I am ok with moderated members reading posts. Ro Date: Thu, 7 Jan 2016 00:25:13 +0000 From: vickie_00@... To: beta@groups.io Subject: Re: [beta] "P"

I agree (just don't see a place to thumb it up yet...). It makes sense to have one group to help moderators and another to discuss possible new features etc. I don't think the first should have the

J, In any kind of group, a member with the "Not moderated" override would have a 'P' next to their name. 'P' does not mean 'not M'. There are five cases, all of which are of interest to a moderator
