Hi,
I think I have a bug on Discourse. I changed the moderation settings to allow creating new topics. I want everyone to be able to create a topic, even with a trust level of 0. I changed some settings; I can show you with the screenshot. Sorry, it’s in French, but I hope it will be clear!
Thank you.

I doubt this is a bug, there are other settings that influence post approval, see here
Content Moderation
By default, users can create topics and replies without the need to have their content approved. For most sites, this is ideal so users can communicate back and forth with each other without the need to wait for approval by the moderation team.
However, in some cases content approval by the moderation team prior to posting may be warranted. Should content approval be enabled, it’s encouraged to have an active moderator team to review and approve content, to avoid posts sitting in the queue for too long.
Site-wide approval
Approval of content across the entire site can be enabled via site settings. Site owners can choose to have the first x topics or posts by a user require approval (the approve post count site setting), that all topics/posts by users who have not reached a certain trust level require approval ( approve unless trust level ), or that new topics (but not posts/replies) by users who have not reached a certain trust level require approval ( approve new topics unless trust level ).
Category approval
Approval of content can also be configured for specific categories. This can be useful if certain categories tend to attract heated/difficult discussions, unusual amounts of human spamming, or otherwise need extra moderation attention. Site owners can configure all new topics and/or all new replies to require moderator approval before being posted.
