Hi,

I am using weblinks as my content type that we get from link module (links-5.x-1.7.tar).

The weblinks can be posted by users who have registered on my site.

Now my problem is the user can post the weblink directly on the site without any approval.

So as an administer i want to put some thing so that the user can post the weblinks only if i approve.

I tried to search it from various places on drupal and google.

Please anybody help me in this. I am new to this technology!!!!!!!

Please give me some useful steps or tips.

Thank you.

This can be a pretty complex process will look at doing but it will be pretty far down on my todo list.

This is something that can be accomplished using the workflow module, or just by setting the default status of the weblink node to unpublished.

Alternately, this could be accomplished by requiring users to be promoted into a role with the rights to post weblinks; ie, remove the right to publish weblinks from the Auth user role.

I have several content types I do as bonobo mentioned above. Just set the default status to unpublished and then go to the admin/content page and you can filter for "unpublished". No fancy modules are needed.

@rmiddle: just mark this "by design" - nothing is needed.
