There is possibility to set flag related with verification of every cache for user. Default value on OCNA should be true for this flag on registration. This value also can be set manually via admin/reviewer panel. This should be enough.
ALTER TABLE `user` CHANGE `verify_all` `verify_all` TINYINT(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '1';
OK, we hired a free lancer about a year ago. On the newcache.php new cache submission form, he added 2 radio buttons "The OC Team can publish my cache immediately upon acceptance" (checked by default) or "No, I will publish the cache myself when I'm ready". He made it so the information on which radio button is selected appears to us in the email that goes out to the OC team telling them that a new cache is pending waiting for review. We found that over the years before I became webmaster and checked into it (no one else had ever noticed) that about 8% of accepted caches were never published by their owners; so we wanted something more like people are used to with Groundspeak, where your cache is published by the reviewer.
Ok, so it seems we also can add something like that - signal for ocTeam to publish new cache just after the review.
All caches are reviewed, regardless of the experience of the hider.
OCNA has a unique cache publication system where the email informing admins a cache is ready to be reviewed tells the reviewer whether or not he/she should publish the cache him/herself, or if the hider would like to do it when they are ready (after approval).
@Opencachingna please explain in more detail the cache publication procedure.
