Hi everyone, I'm planning to launch a Q&A style forum for my community. Our typical make or buy question started with research which is why I stumbled upon this product & community.

Been reading the documentation but couldn't find exactly what I was looking for. Basically wanna know whether codoforum would offer / support following use cases:

1. Approved signups: as admin, I want to review and approve all user signups (gated community).
2. Upvoting: as user, I want to upvote posts. I saw that upvoting replies is possible, but can I upvote a post as well?
3. Groups: Besides choosing a category for my post - is it possible to create groups?
4. Social sharing: Is there any feature that allows me to share a specific post via SM, e.g. twitter ?

TIA for all upcoming replies, much appreciated!

Hi

Approved signups: as admin, I want to review and approve all user signups (gated community).

Yes, you can have approved signups. They need to be approved from backend

Upvoting: as user, I want to upvote posts. I saw that upvoting replies is possible, but can I upvote a post as well?

Yes, upvoting both topics and posts is possible.

Groups: Besides choosing a category for my post - is it possible to create groups?

No, what is the usecase for groups?

Social sharing: Is there any feature that allows me to share a specific post via SM, e.g. twitter ?

Codoforum does not have an in-built feature but it is possible to create a plugin for it.

Dear admin, thank you very much for your prompt reply. As for the member approval feature, is there any documentation I can study? Or a demo installation that I can play around with?
