You could moderate and approve any forum topic that is newly created before it is published on your Freshdesk portal. To set up Forum Moderation, kindly navigate to Admin > Channels > Portals > Settings > Moderate Forums and select the option "Moderate all Topics and Replies".

To approve a forum go to the Dashboard and scroll down. You will find an option of " Forum Moderation" on the right pane. Forum topics and replies that are awaiting moderation would be listed there and you could approve the topics to be published.
