Approval Workflow is meant to create a workflow process in WordPress. This plugin adds a box to the post edit screen when a user does not have publish permissions for that post type. It also allows you to set a WordPress role as the approvers. Note: this role must have publish permissions. The approvers get notified by email when someone has submitted something to the workflow. This works on WordPress Multisite too.
If you need help setting up the roles, I’d recommend the <a href="https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/members/" title="Members plugin" rel="ugc">Members plugin</a>.

<h3>Usage</h3>
Once activated the bbPressModeration plugin will, depending on the settings, prevent the publishing 
of topics and replies until approved by the site administrator.
Registered users who have previously had a topic/reply approved do not need to go through the moderation 
process for subsequent posts.
If a topic/reply is marked for moderation then it is shown in the bbPress Topic or Reply menu as Pending. 
To approve the post, edit and click Publish.
