If you have configured AppWave to restrict the unauthorized publishing of application reviews SYSTEM MANAGEMENT > System properties > General Tab > Restricted Mode = ON, the Moderate Reviews area of the Dashboard displays the number of reviews pending for approval. For example: One review pending for approval. Once approved, it will be available to all users.

Note: The Moderate Reviews option appears on the Dashboard only when there is at least one review pending for approval.

You must approve pending reviews before they will become available to AppWave Browser users. If the system properties have been set so that the administrator approval is not required, reviews will automatically become available as soon as they have been published. AppWave has a default list of questionable words, which if included in the review, will prevent the review from being published.
