Create a new role and give the role node administration permissions.

none!

you need a moderation module and then you need to create the role that will have access there.

which one thetre loads!!!!!

all i need is to creat a modorator... has all the same privlidges as a registered user etc but can apporve content once checked... ie stop the spmmers from writing racial stuff etc. I dont want the mod to have access to anything else on the admin side... just to be able to approve posts.

maybe delete comments as well could be useful

In that case, you probably should use the modr8 module.

nope the modor8 modual didn't work... yes it creates a modoration que which is nice but the have accerss to this the user need adminser node permission which then allows them to edit any page on my site which i dont want.

Please scan through the modules listed on this page; there are at least two or three that will do what you want:

yeah scaned and tried alsorts and getting no where... this is why i asked for help... been playing round with severial different mods but still no joy. Modr8 seems to get the closest but the fact it needs the administer nodes permission allows for site wide editing which i dont want. cant figger out why it needs this permission as the mod68 mod is pointless as drupal has its own built in content admister section which does the same... but again would allows for site wide editing not just whats in the mod que.

also tried the publish content mod which allows publishing and unpublishing of centent types with out the admister nodes permission. how wver this mod doesn't seem to have a que system to see what items are waiting to be approved.
