> ### Category moderator improvements
> 
> Category moderators are now even more powerful. In addition to the original support for viewing topics in the review queue for a category, category moderators can now mark topics as solved, close topics, archive topics, move posts between topics, edit the category description, and add staff notices. Category moderators also received a shield icon on posts within their categories, and they have a CSS class on their posts for sites that wish to further customize the style.

How can i make a user to a moderator only for a specific categroy? I didn’t find anything in the category options…

Any help is appreciated.

Greetings, Ronny
