Non moderator wants to collect list of posts that need moving

Product Support

AI-generated summary

A user, dsteinschneider, wants to report off-topic posts in a thread without hiding them from all users, as flagging previously caused the post to be hidden. JammyDodger suggests checking the community hide settings to prevent accidental hiding. dsteinschneider shares that they manually sent the moderator a list of post numbers by clicking the chain icon on each post. JammyDodger adds that tapping the timestamp provides useful post details and a quick link, which dsteinschneider confirms they discovered by accident.

I want to submit all the individual posts in a thread that veered off into another topic. I tried flagging the post as off topic but wasn’t expecting the post to be hidden for all users.

I’m looking for the best way to send the moderator the list of posts in one thread to be moved to a new topic. It would be great if I could flag them for the moderator without altering the thread.

Thanks

There’s some good info on the calculations that happen backstage to activate the ‘community hide’ screen in this topic:

There may be some scope within those settings for your admin/moderator to tweak them so you don’t ‘one hit hide’ an off-topic post?

I ended up sending the moderator the list of post numbers in the topic that we want moved. I clicked under each post on the chain icon to get the post’s number.

You can also tap the timestamp in the top-right corner of a post to get some useful info too. :+1: (and long-press/right-click to grab a quick link)

Thanks - I had seen that once by accident but wasn’t sure how I made it happen.
