Hi, I have a difficulty with that setting: approve unless allowed groups.

This is my setting (TL1 to TL4 have been set, screen capture is in French):

 ![screen-capture (Captioned by AI)](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/f/f/6/ff66f0df990732242f545d51768918d610a15f15.png)

Based on the above setting, I expected my TL2 users posts not to be requiring approval, but they are. I may be misunderstanding the setting or another setting is interfering with my goal that TL1 and above TLs are not to be approved? Thanks for your ideas.
