We recently added lots of long awaited improvements to our [Category specific Moderators feature](https://meta.discourse.org/t/category-group-review-moderation/116478/).

As of today, they are now able to:

- Mark topics as solved

- Edit posts

- Close topics

- Archive topics

- Move posts from a topic

- Pin/unpin topics

- Edit category descriptions

- Add staff notices

for any topics under the categories they have moderator status.

Category Moderators now get a shield on posts under their categories, and we also added a special CSS class their posts, so you can add some custom styling to those users that is restricted to their own categories.
