Adding/Removing Moderators

Recommended Posts

This is something that has bugged me for a while so i thought i would post here on the off-chance a member of staff might read it and agree!

If you have a board with many different forums/sub-forums it is a virtual nightmare to add/remove moderators.

See the chap to the left on my avatar? Thats me adding/removing a few moderators via the ACP!

Firstly, on the main page you can add a moderator (or group) to selected forums using tickboxes (which is great), but it should also include the sub-forums so you can add moderators to them without having to click inside the parent forum(s).

Secondly, an option (per forum perhaps) that gives moderators the same permissions on all sub-forums of the forum being selected would come in handy.

For example a moderator on a forum called "Sports" with 3 sub-forums ("Football", "Tennis" & "Cricket"), would be able to moderate them all.

Again, this would simply be an option in the parent forum such as "Moderators can moderate sub-forums? Yes/No".

Thirdly (and probably most importantly), removing moderators from forums seriously needs looking at.

There really needs to be some checkboxes added so that when the board admin has the task of removing quite a few moderators, he/she can do it a little less painfully.

Lastly, one other idea is that i would also add a way to bulk-change the moderation permissions of an individual user or group.

For example, if you had one user with moderation permissions in 20 forums and he/she was allowed view IP addresses but you (the board admin) decided to change it so they couldnt see IP addresses... what would you do?

Currently you would have to locate each and every single forum and alter that users permissions individually which after a while seems like dying a slow death!

Making it so there is a way to bulk-change a user/group(s) moderation permissions in (selected) forums would be very much appreciated and would be an invaluable feature.


To sum up, there are many ways of making the ACP easier for admins to add/remove moderators etc, so please think about it, thanks :)

yah.. i was just searching this forum to see if there's any easy way to remove mods from my forum which has LOTs of sub-sections..

my god.. its a total pain in the rear..

why can't there be an option like "remove this_MOD from all forums"?
OR pull up a mods assigned section and have tick marks to the assigned sections?

PLEASE PLEASE MAKE IT EASY>>> thank you.
