Hello,
I’m experiencing a strange issue on my Discourse forum. Every time a non-administrator user creates a new post, the “system” user automatically flags the post. The posts themselves are published, but they are immediately flagged for review by an administrator. The reason given for the flag is simply “needs review”
I’ve already checked all the moderation settings and lowered the thresholds as much as possible, but the problem persists. It only happens for non-admin users. Admin posts are not affected.
Here’s what I’ve tried so far:
- Lowered all review-related settings (e.g., “min trust to post links,” new user restrictions, etc.).
- Checked for any custom watched words or flagging rules.
I’m not sure what else to check. Could someone provide some guidance on how to troubleshoot this? What settings or logs should I be examining?
Thank you!
