The discussion revolves around an accidental double-tap issue during post approval and deletion in a moderated forum. watchmanmonitor reports that while using post moderation, they accidentally deleted a post by double-tapping the ‘Cancel’ button, which also triggered the ‘Reject’ action. They provide screenshots to illustrate the issue, noting the close proximity of the buttons and the lack of confirmation. codinghorror requests screenshots for clarity. watchmanmonitor confirms the issue persists in the latest beta version, where deleting a post causes the next one to shift into place immediately. codinghorror suggests an undo feature would be more useful. watchmanmonitor agrees, highlighting the risk of approving multiple posts unintentionally. riking supports the idea of a confirmation action. watchmanmonitor adds that undo for deletions would prevent the next post from moving into place, preserving the order. The discussion concludes with a suggestion to implement an undo feature for approvals.
I have enabled post moderation in our forum, I think I like it a lot.
However, I just went to edit a post’s topic, realized I couldn’t, and hit Cancel.
I think I double tapped accidentally, and the Cancel button was right over the Reject post button… now this post is gone!
Can have the Delete buttons no where near the rest of the moderation controls? 
Can you provide screenshots? really not clear what you are talking about here. Screenshot cropped would help.
Also: bug? Seriously? I suggest you re-read the definition of bug in the category description 
View the initial moderated post
Click Edit
Scroll down because the window & controls moved
Click Cancel,
the reject button is directly underneath
Note that these screenshots are from a reply I made to my user after I released his reply
If that’s not a bug, it’s at best something that needs to get fixed:
I have just updated to v1.3.0.beta9-dirty and when I deleted one post, the next post moved into place immediately.
Anyone who accidentally double taps may not even know they deleted two posts. Maybe a secondary confirmation would be good?
I think an undo is more interesting. And as you brought up, where do these deleted not-posted-yet posts go?
The same double tap issue is present on approvals.. I approved my post and had i not been paying attention just have easily approved 2+ posts.
Of course, if I had a lot to do all at once (approve or reject either way) a confirm action could get old too.
If something could be done not to auto-scroll the button from post 2 to where post 1 used to be, that’d be nice.
A confirm action is certainly wrong, I think undo is the way to go here.
What I love about undo for deletions is that they’ll stay there for a while, preventing the next one from moving into place.
Not sure how it’d work for posts which are approved, unless they are left in the list until a manual page refresh as well.
In any case, yes 
for undo.
Maybe we can get Approvals as a featured aspect in 1.7?
