A discussion has been started about the Moderation history not showing undelete/approval actions. Nick_Shearer_nsheare reported a post was marked as needing approval, and when approved, there was no corresponding entry in the moderation history. Instead, the post still showed as deleted by the system. Nick_Shearer_nsheare clarified that his point was the moderation history not showing the approval action, not the initial deletion. neil acknowledged the issue and suggested adding “disagree” and “ignore” actions to the moderation history logs, which currently only include actions like :delete_user and :delete_post. However, Nick_Shearer_nsheare noted that this specific issue was related to a post needing approval due to links, not a flagged post.
Hmm, a post needing approval shouldn’t be assumed to be spam and deleted… Have you set your site to require approval for new user posts? Or you’re using watched words to require approval?
I think it’s because new users need to have their posts approved if they contain links.
It is weird that it was marked deleted while it was pending approval however my point was was more that the moderation history doesn’t show that someone had approved the post.
very confusing when you look at the moderation history on a visible post and all you can see is that it was deleted.
I’m not sure if it makes a difference but this wasn’t a flagged post, it was one the system had marked as as needing approval due to the amount of links in it.
