How you set up moderation depends on the content type(s) and place(s) you want
to moderate.
CAUTION:
Private content cannot be moderated. This includes content
created in private groups, secret groups, private discussions, and Your Documents that
have visibility limited to the author or specific users.
Setting Up Moderation in a Space, Project, or Group
Note: A sub-space inherits the moderation settings of its parent space. A project
inherits the moderation settings of its parent space or group. If you try to change
the moderation settings of a sub-space or project, you will break the moderation
settings of its parent. Social groups are moderated by the root space
moderator.
- Go to .
- Click Change space and select the space in which you
want to enable moderation.
- Select the content type(s) you want to moderate in the space, for example,
announcements, polls, documents, blog posts, and so on. You can choose one,
several, or all. (All content types will go to the moderator(s) you designate.
In other words, you can't have Joey moderate documents and Dee Dee moderate blog
posts in the same space).
- Click Save changes.
- Go to , and select the same space.
- Click Create a user override, select the user(s) you want to be moderator(s),
and then click Set exception. Select .
You could also set a whole group as the moderators by clicking Add group, selecting
the group, setting the permission level to Moderate, and then
Add Group.
Setting Up Blog Moderation
You can set up blog post moderation by following the instructions above in
"Setting Up Moderation in a Space, Project, or Group" and selecting the content type
"blog posts" from the page. All system, social group, and personal blog posts are moderated
from the root space; space and sub-space blog posts will go to the parent space
moderator. A project in a space or group inherits the moderation settings of its
parent.
Blog comment moderation is set up by the blog's author for every kind of blog
(system-level, space, project, group, and personal blogs). Blog owners set up
moderation for a blog's comments on the blog's page. System administrators can also moderate blog comments for
system, social group, and personal blogs from the admin console page.
Setting Up Document Comment Moderation
Document comments can only be moderated by the document's author. This includes comments
for all documents created in all places and Your Documents. The author
enables moderation when creating or editing a document, and selecting .
Moderation of Your Documents
If a user sets the visibility of a document saved in Your Documents to
Open to anyone, and the root space has moderation enabled,
the document will be moderated by the root space moderator.
