Stop maintainers from 'jumping' the moderation queue of a comm
Title:
Stop maintainers from 'jumping' the moderation queue of a comm
Area:
community management, moderated posting
Summary:
If a community has moderated posting, a community admin will always jump the queue, even if they don't explicitly have the 'unmoderated posting' checkbox on. The queue should respect the "unmoderated posting" checkbox for everyone, even community admins: if an admin unchecks his/her "unmoderated posting" checkbox, their entries should go into the moderation queue just like everyone else's.
Description:
This drives me bugfuck insane in dw-suggestions *all the time* -- if I post a suggestion, I jump the queue and my entry gets posted no matter what. This messes with a lot of things if there are entries already in queue, so I have to wait until the queue is empty to write suggestions instead of putting them in whenever I think of them.
There are times when a community admin wants to bypass the moderation queue, since it would be tedious for all their entires to go through the queue, but for comms like dw-suggestions it would be nice if there were a way to keep that from happening. So, if an admin has his/her "unmoderated posting" checkbox unchecked on the Manage Members page, his/her entries should go into the queue just like everyone else's, for approval in turn.
