 * Hey Roman,
 * Quick question. Before, on my website, when users would submit a post it would
   go straight to the home page as a published post. I’ve recently switched the 
   layout so that when a user submits a post, it isn’t published immediately but
   rather pending my approval. It seemed to work in my test-run as a post I created
   didn’t immediately go up on the page. However, when I approved the post in the
   back-end and turned it into a published post, it didn’t pop up on the home screen.
   Is there a reason why this is the case, and is there just a waiting time from
   the point of my approval before it goes up on the website?
 * I tried reverse engineering this problem and turned one of the currently published
   posts into pending, and that seemed to work, but only after a little while.
 * Please let me know your thoughts.
 * Best,
    Milton
