Tracking Staff Actions on Flagged Topics and Posts

omppatil is seeking a method to track staff actions on flagged topics and posts, specifically when a moderator approves, ignores, or rejects a flagged post and later forgets about it or if it contained disallowed content.

ondrej provides two solutions to this issue:

  1. The review queue can be accessed by going to /review on the site. From there, results can be filtered by status (e.g., “all reviewed”), username, and date.
  2. Moderation history can be viewed by going to a topic, clicking the “topic actions” wrench icon, and selecting “Moderation History.” This will display relevant moderator actions for that specific topic.

Is there a way to view or add a log message to the staff actions log when a topic or post is flagged for watched words, and subsequently, if its flagged status is ignored, approved, or rejected by a moderator? The issue I’m encountering is that if moderator X approves, ignores, or rejects a topic or post and then forgets about it, or if it contained disallowed content, admin A seems to have no method, that I’ve discovered, to identify who reviewed the flagged topic or post.

This is found in the review queue. So if you go to /review on your site, you will be able to filter the results like so:

So for example above I selected ‘all reviewed’ and this (below) is the last reviewed item. Of course you can filter by username, date etc.


Another way to find out is by going to a topic, clicking the topic actions :wrench: and pressing ‘Moderation History’ this will pull up any relevant moderator actions in that specific topic.
