My post requires approval from a Moderator

Post by Jimli_ »

So I'm trying to post my mod, but every time I try it says it requires approval from a moderator? But this post doesn't somehow? Any help?

My memory might be a little fuzzy here, but I think this issue seems to have something to do with links. When you post something that just has a url for the download in the post, it seems to trigger the moderator approval requirement, in order to fight spam(bots) that like to post links.

Something like this might bypass it, but I'm not completely sure about that.

As far as I know, the forum will automatically authorize the post after a while. I did it manually for now.

I tend to get the posts sent out for approval if I try to make an image or text a hyperlink instead of just posting it directly.

An easy solution would be to make a linkless post, then edit it with your special links and everything. It'll say it needs moderator approval but the changes will be instantly added.
