I was trying to figure out a workflow where draft topics created by a specific user requires approval from someone in an ‘Editor’ Group before the topic becomes visible. As all topics will come from a specific users, is there a way to force all topics from a user to require approval? Or is there a way to manually flag a topic to require approval? I though also about using the ‘flag’ system for this, which is one workaround but then I think only moderators will be able to review the topic.

Hi Isambard, [תמונה] Isambard: topics created by a specific user requires approval In category settings you can select that all topics go through approval [image] [תמונה] Isambard: in an ‘Editor’ Group In the image above below ‘Moderation’ you can set a group name. In your case I think category moderators would work nicely. You can see what ‘powers’ category moderatos have in this topic here. [תמונה] Isambard: is there a way to manually flag a topic There is a manual way to put items in the review queue but this way seems ineffective as it makes you choose a flag option and just wanting to review a topic doesn’t fit the bill of any of the flagging options in my opinion. :thinking: As a side note… maybe the ‘Queue For review’ Button should always be clickable or else you might as well just flag the post normally its the same amount of clicks.

I think you can add custom flag types soon. Then you could create a review flag. https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/27484

Ohh thats a pretty neat feature!

A special category plus category moderators was also one of my first thoughts. This does limit that all posts have to go to a specific category. I guess I could add some kind of post-approve hook to then re-categorize it or task the reviewers with manually doing that as part of the review step.
