    I need help with my new Diigo group. I don't want to have to approve every new member's bookmark and/or topic. How do I adjust my settings to let anyone add new content without having to moderate every new post?

    I have an educator account if that makes a difference

    As for groups created via teacher console, if these members' accounts are created by you or have been invited to join your group by you ,then their first posts do not need to be moderated.
    If unknown members apply to join your group on the initiative,their first posts need to be moderated.
    We take this mechanism to avoid spammers to abuse our system.
    According to your feedback, we are evaluating the possibility to roll it out.

    Thanks Sandy. I understand the rationale behind that...but for me, because we live in such an immediate world, I am afraid that by having to wait for moderation it discourages people participating. It would seem that the group creator should be able to choose to allow open access or force moderation.

    For me, it would be much easier to delete a marginal occurrence of spam than to have to accept every new member's first bookmarks/notes.

    Would it be possible for Diigo to change this for only my account? Diigo is going to be THE follow up resource for a statewide conference on education being hosted by the Rowland Foundation, with keynote speaker Sir Ken Robinson, and closing remarks by the Governor of Vermont.

    It was my fault to assume that it would be accessible to only those people I have "formally" invited...our hope was this would become a central repository of information and communication for educators from across New England.
