To be recognized as a registered user, the user must be logged into your site at the time they post their comment. This plugin assumes that you trust your registered users. It will automatically approve any comment made by registered users, even if the comment stinks of spam. Therefore, it is recommended that you do not allow users to register themselves ( uncheck the setting “Anyone can register” in the WordPress admin under Settings - > General). You can still allow open registration, whereby these “subscribers” are moderated as usual, while other more privileged users do not get moderated. The plugin provides a filter, ‘c2c_never_moderate_registered_users_caps’, which allows you to specify the roles and capabilities that can bypass moderation. See the FAQ for an example. This plugin is a partial successor to my now-defunct Never Moderate Admins or Post Author plugin. In addition to preventing admins and the post’s author from being moderated, that plugin also allowed you to prevent registered users from being moderated. WordPress has long since integrated that functionality, so the main thrust of that plugin became moot. However, the ability to never moderate registered users is still a valid need that requires this plugin.

That documentation covers the numerous hooks provided by the plugin. Those hooks are listed below to provide an overview of what’s available. * `c2c_never_moderate_registered_users_caps` : Customize the capabilities that are automatically trusted, any one of which a user must have in order to never get moderated. * `c2c_never_moderate_registered_users_approved` : Customize granular control for whether a comment by a registered user that would otherwise be moderated or marked as spam should automatically be approved. ## སྒྲིག་འཇུག 1. Install via the built-in WordPress plugin installer. Or install the plugin code inside the plugins directory for your site (typically `/wp-content/plugins/`). 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ admin menu in WordPress 3. Optional: Use one or more of the provided hooks in custom code to control specific capabilities that should be exempted from moderation and spam or to control the feature on a comment-by-comment basis. ## FAQ ### Hey, why did I get some obvious spam from a registered user? This plugin assumes that any comment made by a registered user (or a user with a specified capabilities) is not spam, regardless of the spamminess of their comment. If you don’t trust your registered users you probably shouldn’t have this plugin activated. Or at least follow the directions above to increase the minimum threshold for trusted users. ### I don’t trust registered users who are just “subscribers”, but I trust “contributors”; can this plugin moderate accordingly? Yes. You can specify the capabilities and roles that can bypass moderation. See the example provided for the ‘c2c_never_moderate_registered_users_caps’ filter. ### Does this plugin have unit tests? Yes. The tests are not packaged in the release .zip file or included in plugins. svn.wordpress.org, but can be found in the [plugin’s GitHub repository](https://github.com/coffee2code/never-moderate-registered-users/). ## གདེང་འཇོག ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/0427028d01a8df2129cf2184770ea99ceb1471ec204a890bf33ea23c56b89d5c? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Do exactly what it say](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/do-exactly-what-it-say/)󠁿 [Marco Buttarini](https://profiles.wordpress.org/webgrafia/) 2024 ལོའི་ཟླ 1 ཚེས 30 ཉིན། I love this minimal plugins that do exactly what is expected, without unuseful stuff.
