    Hi All,

    I'm new to WP...just setup my first site.

    Can I automatically assign all new users a SUBSCRIBER role upon registration? I'm running a community portal and would like everyone to have SUBMISSION capability from the start without having to manually assign the role. Then the admins can approve any posts submitted.

    Thanks!

    Thanks Samuel...installed the plugin. I mixed up the terms in my initial post. I need to set ALL MEMBERS (aside from ADMINS) as CONTRIBUTORS, so they can freely submit posts for approval.

    It's not clear to me exactly how to do this within the Role Groups setup page.

    Thanks

    What's wrong with just setting it in Settings > General?
