Comment moderation is a feature that many people have asked for. Because Mango does not have that functionality out of the box, I created a plugin that will add moderation settings to your admin.

Giancarlo,
Make sure you go to Settings and set the plugin to moderate.

I did and the comments would still come in as approved so I had to hardcode the insert action to set the approved status to false because apparently it was ignoring the setting in the handler.cfc

Well, you may be using an author email to enter the comment. It will bypass an author comment, since that doesn't need to be moderated.

I activated this plugin, and a couple of questions.
1. when i view the overview in the admin area, I get a java security exception (only appears if I activate the plugin).
2. How does the moderation work exactly, is the author sent an email with an approve link, or is there somewhere in the admin area to approve comments?
Thanks!

I activated this plugin and reloaded the configuration but all the comments are added to the datase as approved by default.
