Moderator Extension

On another note, would it be possible to move the moderators below the featured images to keep the moderator list next to whos online? Thank you Angus.

Sure. Remind me in our pm thread tomorrow and I’ll do it.

Is there a specific i18n string for “Moderators”? “Your hosts” would look so much friendlier to me. Thanks!

Yup, it’s category.moderators. You can edit this in Customize > Text Content.

Can i move the moderators in the description section ? just like this:

Hey @angus a big heads up here: the Review Queue is unfortunately going to have breaking changes for discourse-moderator-extension and discourse-category-moderator-lite since it removes QueuedPost.

I am working on backwards compatibility right now, and while some internal APIs can be preserved, the prepending of modules to QueuedPost and QueuedPostController will not work as I can’t cover the entire thing.

The good news is the Review Queue is meant to allow group specific moderation, so it’s likely the core functionality will meet your needs or be much easier to customize for them.

The feature is not ready for primetime, so I’m hoping with enough notice you’ll have a chance to review the changes coming to core to minimize interruptions.

Many thanks for the heads up Robin. I’ll check it out next week.

I think the changes have broken the plugin…

Hey @jonathon, thanks for reporting!

I had been following the development of new Review Queue (after @eviltrout helpfully gave me a heads up), however I just went on holiday (got back Monday) and wasn’t able to get to this one in the busy build up to going away.

I’ve slotted in time to work on the upgrade to this on Friday. I’m using a new system for my open source Discourse work, to give a bit more visibility on what I’m working on and when (a “Work” category paired with my Events Plugin).

Considering the extent of the changes, I may not be able to finish the upgrade in one sitting. If not I’ll schedule another time to take a look at this.

In the meantime, this means that this plugin only supports up to https://github.com/discourse/discourse/releases/tag/v2.3.0.beta5

Given the current work at Discourse related to Category-Specific Moderators, phase 1 RFC, do you think this is going to be superceded and/or integrated in some official Discourse plugin?

Yes, I very much hope it will soon be superseded! :slight_smile:

I hope so, this is special usefull when you would like to run a multi-lingual site an Jail a moderator to specific language (category)…

Q.- Can you assigned the same moderator to more than one category?
