| Just purchased InstantForum.NET 4 and just setting up and have been playing with it for a few days. Am hoping someone on this forum can point in the right direction. Have set up a moderator for forums have created. Have created some "test" forum regular users". Have created new posts, edited posts etc, but the assigned moderator does not receive notification that there are new topics, new posts, etc. Do note am able to receive notification of new registrations etc so email is working. Moderator group that the moderator belongs to has the following permissions: and the moderator themself has the following settings: Am I missing something?

Hadn't set to be notified of new posts via email - so have just done so. That's another thing that I want users to have automatically but will get to that later after moderators being notifed automatically.

You need to go into your Forum Members (or whatever group you are using for the regular members) and set those permissions to have the users always moderated. It is not automatic like in 3.4. In the Admin CP, click on Manage Permission Sets and change the options in there for the various groups you are using.

| Are you referring to the ability for users to be notified about replies to their posts? or to the question regarding moderators not receiving notification that there are posts? If to the ability for users to be notified about replies to their posts - the setting has the following options: I do want all posts to go immeidately live without needing approval, so have it set to NO for Always moderate posts? And have it set Never moderate posts? to YES so that they will go immediately live. But in relation to the problem with the moderator not receiving notification?

| Ok now I'm confused about what you want to happen. You now say you want all the users posts to go live immediately correct? If so then there won't be any pending posts that need to be approved by the moderators, which is why they are not receiving emails about posts that need to be approved. Please clarify what it is you are actually trying to setup.

| 1. We want all users posts (topics/replys/posts) to go immediately live without needing to be approved by a moderator. 2. But we want the moderator to be notified that there is a new post/reply/topic so if it is a question that that needs to be answered, the moderator is notified of this.

Ok then what you need to do, is set your forum member groups to Never Moderate Posts and then your Moderators need to individualy subscribe to each forum in order to receive post notification emails, just like a normal user would. To do this they can click on Forum Options through the main part of the site.
