I received a flag from a user wanting to split a topic. The flag message had two details I needed, the title of the new topic and the specific post to start the split.
As I have only used the flag system as an admin once before; it is a learning experience.
So I choose the option to agree and then do nothing so the post was not deleted.
After that I realized I needed the exact post to split at and so went looking for the resolved flag.
I did find the flag sections under moderation, but could not figure out which flag was the latest and could not find the original message in the flag. I also checked my private messages and the profile of the user. No joy.
How does one find the original messages in a flag?
(I do have admin access if that is necessary, but it is a hosted education site (SWI-Prolog) so the rest, such as console, is a no go.)
Go to the the review flags page (Hamburger Menu => Review) and then do a search for the post you’re looking for. I sort by “all reviewed” and sort it by “created at”
This will bring up a list of every flag you’ve reviewed, no matter the status. You can also narrow the filters by status: approved, rejected, ignored, etc.
I should mention that I am a little embarrassed to say how long it took me to figure this one out. I use it a lot now, because I have other staff members helping me, so I can use this to review what they’ve been doing as well. Keeps me up to date on what’s going on and lets me know if there’s an issue with a staffer I need to address.
