Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt November 11, 2024
^^MeX^^ Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 Just like for the admin cp, i think there should be one more moderators, it could be more detailed, and also, the moderators could get some new stuff like perhaps: 1) turning board on/off 2) Editing member (all fields) 3) Ban settings 4) forum moderators? Anyone agree? :lol:

Anyone agree? :lol: 1) Best left for admins. Tho i can see where it can come in handy if forum has been spammed etc. 2) I agree 3) I agree also 4) Don't really know..

Well, by the 4th one, i meant by, so that a global mod has ctrl of forum moderators, that way, the admin can focus on more important things.. :P

blackfalcon Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 1. I think should be admins only 2. Kind of. though I am a little hesitant to let moderators do that. 3. Yes 4. Again, I dont think super moderators should be able to control/manage forum moderators. Adding forum moderators seems like something done by admins. I rarely give my admins free will of appointing forum moderators, let alone giving my super moderators that ability.
blackfalcon Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 What I mean is, on my and most forums that I know of, moderators are decided upon by all the administrators, not just one admin making someone a moderator on their own will. So giving moderators this ability to seems pointless.Well, by the 4th one, i meant by, so that a global mod has ctrl of forum moderators, that way, the admin can focus on more important things.. :P In my opinion, promoting people to moderator is one of the most important, high level task there is. You are basicly handing to someone full ability to police your forums, to act on your behalf, and to represent you. and for number two, I think moderators currently have enough ability to edit members profiles.
TrixieTang Posted October 22, 2008 Posted October 22, 2008 This is why we have ACP restrictions, no? Yep. :lol:
blackfalcon Posted October 22, 2008 Posted October 22, 2008 We are not talking about administrators, we are talking about moderators. I do give my admins the physical ability to add and remove moderators for emergency situations that they need to remove one of them and I am not online for them to consult.

If you want your mods to have those privileges than you CAN give them those privileges, you just have to have them in a group with admin status and add restrictions on what admin powers they can use.
blackfalcon Posted October 22, 2008 Posted October 22, 2008 only problem is the flaw that says that any one with any admin access shows up as an admin on the forum leaders page. I hope IPB3 fixes that.

Not if the admin group is a secondary group. But yeah, I do think the Moderating Team page needs to be customizable.
blackfalcon Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Not if the admin group is a secondary group. Ic thanks for that.
hollland Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 This is why we have ACP restrictions, no? One of the best Features/Options of the Acp in my humble opinion.
blackfalcon Posted November 13, 2008 Posted November 13, 2008 One of the best Features/Options of the Acp in my humble opinion. Amen to that. Probably one of of the main things that separates IPB from vbulletin.
Jυra Posted November 13, 2008 Posted November 13, 2008 But yeah, I do think the Moderating Team page needs to be customizable. Agreed. I want to list non-mod/admin staff.
