You can choose if you want users to be able to post without creating an account. This can be done per forum or group in Simple:Press Admin, and it can be adjusted at any time. For example, you can have some forums that allow users to post without creating an user account. While other forums are only shown to registered users.
I logged in and updated your settings. From what I can see I can post as a guest. However the caching on the forum pages make things a bit tricky for the users. We often recommend that the forum url is never cached since it can mess up the forum experience.
If in doubt, contact your hosting provider and ask them to set up a rule that excludes discussion-boards from the cache.
That worked thank you so much! Where does the moderator get notified if a post needs to be approved? IE how do they know that a guest has made a post that needs approval?
It depends on your setup. The easiest way to see posts that need moderation is to click on the “New/Updated Topics” button in the forum. If there are any posts that need moderation they will have a small speech bubble indicating that there is a post in need of moderation.
