replies to 'pending'. Any pending topics/replies will be shown as 'Awaiting Moderation' until
the administrator approves publishes them.

**Features**

* Blog administrator can be notified of new topics and replies requiring moderation.
* Anonymous postings can always be marked for moderation.
* Registered users can post without moderation after the first topic/reply is approved.
* A bubble counter is shown on the Topics and Replies menu to indicate the number of posts awaiting moderation.

* English

== Installation ==

To install the plugin complete the following steps

1. Unzip the zip-file and upload the content to your Wordpress Plugin directory. Usually `/wp-content/plugins`
2. Activate the plugin via the Admin plugin page.

== Usage ==

Once activated the bbPressModeration plugin will, depending on the settings, prevent the publishing
of topics and replies until approved by the site administrator. 

Registered users who have previously had a topic/reply approved do not need to go through the moderation
process for subsequent posts.

If a topic/reply is marked for moderation then it is shown in the bbPress Topic or Reply menu as Pending.
To approve the post, edit and click Publish.
