Who can moderate
The level of moderation access depends on the teammate’s role:
Leader (Community owner): Full access to all moderation features
Admin: Full access to all moderation features
Assistant: Full access to all moderation features
Moderator: Can only moderate content in Channels they are a member of
Regular members do not see any moderation controls.
Important: Moderators are Channel-scoped. They can only see and act on content in channels they belong to. Leaders, Admins, and Assistants can see all Channels.

The Review Feed is the central dashboard for moderation activity.

Require post approval for a member
You can require approval for all posts from a specific member. When enabled, their posts must be approved before appearing in the Feed.
This is useful if a Member has previously posted inappropriate content.
To enable Require post approval:
Go to the Member’s profile.
Open the Moderation section.
Toggle Require post approval on.
When enabled:
All new posts from that Member go to the Pending tab in the Review Feed
Posts are not visible in the Channel until approved
Important: Require post approval is set per User, per Community. You must enable it individually on each Member’s profile.
View moderation logs
Moderation Logs provide a complete audit trail of all moderation activity.
To access logs:
Go to the Review Feed.
Click View Logs in the header.
The logs display:
Actions tracked: hide, unhide, lock, unlock, approve, reject
Filters available: action type, date range
Details shown: moderator name, action taken, timestamp, affected content
Tip: Use Moderation Logs to answer “Who hid this post?” or “Who locked this thread?”. The full history is recorded.
