I have it set so that only admins can see the moderation area, however my global mods can still see it and access it. What is the purpose of this setting if they can see it anyways and does this mean that even post count groups can see it?




Am I missing something?

Confirmed, this is a bug. Reported HERE

The Permission Access to Moderation Centre doesn't apply to the default membergroup id 2 (Global Moderator)

Wow my first bug hehehe.


Thanks for reporting it. I will mark this one as solved and keep an eye on your thread. :)

Well it for moderation, so whats the whole point of restricting moderators? makes no sense...

I have reopened this thread due my issue having to do with what I originally posted.


Issue is... I need to know how I can start logging who opens/closes reported posts. I have a gremlin on my site that keeps closing them out - a gremlin because nobody wants to fess up to being the one that did it and I need to know who it was. I know it was one of my mods, I just dont know which one because that activity does not get logged.

SMF was set up to record mods activities, why does RC2.0 not include those since its all a default part of SMF?

Also, how soon before a fix is put out on the fact that the feature of not even letting them in there isnt working?

Have you tried enabling Moderation Logs? Please check out Core features, and enable it if not already.

yes its enabled and has been since day one (over 2 years ago). :) The mod logs  do not record anything pertaining to reports and I need to know who/when a report gets closed, ignored, etc.  If its "supposed" to record those activities then it doesnt work..lol


If you guys would just hurry up and fix the part that is broken in terms of even allowing groups in there, I wouldnt even need those activities recorded because my mods couldnt even get in there to begin with. :)

I don't know if it was supposed to log closing/ignoring reports, but it makes a lot of sense to me. However, indeed it doesn't, in the current RC2 version as well.

Thank you :)

As the issues here are something we can't do much about at the moment, but both are tracked, I'll mark this solved for now.
If you need help with something related to these issues, you are free to post back though and mark the topic not solved if needed ;)
