sorry if this is a mundane question...

but in my CB configuration > moderation tab
I currently have it set up to where Publishers are moderators...

In my situation - I need registered users who create a group (and the group is then approved by a SuperUser) to become a moderator and then that registered user can approve the members that want to join their group that they created.

How do I set a "plain-jane" registered user to a level that can then be a moderator { in this case, a publisher }?

Would this have to be done when the SuperUser admin approves the group creation? The SuperUser would then have to move that registered user to a level like author/editor/manager/publisher?

I have been testing this and if a registered user who is a true Registered User creates a group - the SuperUser does NOT get an email notification to approve group

if a Reg. User has been set to Author - then email notification is sent to SuperUSer.

So how is SuperUser supposed to know this group has been created and then, therefore, a Registered User can be promoted to a different level like "publisher" , or "author" level by SU ? and then once they are promoted to "publisher" - they will be notified and able to approve members wanting to join their group?


If I set CB Config > Moderation to "public" - (a level below Registered User) - doesn't that make Joe Q Public a "moderator" when I really don't want that? If/when I do that - now regular ol' Reg Users can unpublish other groups that have already been created?! Dont want that!


ultimately - this is what I want...
A SuperUser would have to approve a newly created GROUP

BUT as for other registered user members joining groups - I want the GROUP CREATOR (the "moderator") to approve the members joining the group that they (the group creator) just created.

The SuperUser admin would NOT have to approve GROUP MEMBERS, but the Group Creator Moderator would.
