Now that we have [FEATURE: add support for "Flagged By" filter in reviewable by SamSaffron · Pull Request #30197 · discourse/discourse · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/30197) let’s also add a link to the filter from user profile pages, only accessible by moderators and admins. We already link to “flagged posts” so making “helpful flags” a link would be make sense.

We can see the deleted posts and flags and warnings but we can’t click on the helpful flags one why not?

Good question, seems unintended to me so I moved this to #Contribute > UX. For now you can click on flags and just set it to “approved” despite the missing searchbar.

And then the problem is that if the user only has helpful flags, you would need to go the roundabout route to the review queue, filter for Approved, and show the ‘flagged by’ for that user.
