Monitoring posts

Is there any way I can monitor posts before they are posted? I would like to approvr new members before they can join my forum?
Is there a way to do that? When someone wants to join, I would get an email asking if I approve or not approve their joining the forum.

You can not monitor posts before they are posted.

Administration Panel > Users & Usergroups > Users > Users Options
New accounts activation: Admin

Thank you.
This would not monitor posts, but would monitor the people trying to register. No one would be able to register unless I appove them. Correct?

Nope. It's correct. After you set it to Admin, go to the:
Administration Panel > Users & Usergroups > Users > Inactive Users

Then you can now activate the people who registered in your forum which requires your (as admin) activation.

I am confused.

I am not talking about approving new members. I am talking about monitoring/moderating/approving new 'posts' before they are posted (new posts by any member).

I'm preety sure you can't but - You can stop new users from posting external links.

When someone wants to join, I would get an email asking if I approve or not approve their joining the forum.

That's what we answer.
And for monitoring post, as stated by SLGray, you can't moniter them .

Hello,

The best solution for this to hire more moderators since it's not possible yet, you can suggest it but check first if it's been suggested using the search function
