Topic Moderation Status (my first mod
)

Explanation: On a forum you can sse the list of topics whith a light corresponding in front of each topics.
By default when a topic is created the light is orange
. In the topic itself appears the color of the light corresponding to this topic.
When a moderator or an admin reads a topic, he can put it to green using the menu on the side at the bottom of the page.
Green
will mean everything is fine and that the topic has been checked and moderated. He can also put it to red
. This will mean that he wants to allert others moderors or admin on that topic. In the liste of forums, you have the possibility to show only topics marked green, orange, red.
The lights are also present in the search for your convenience and in the modcp for marking several topics at once.
When someone post an answer, the light will become orange
again except if it is marked red
.

Mod Topic Moderation Status 1.2
So here it is. Each topic has a light with a "color". By default each topic has an orange light.
When a moderator reads a post, if he judges everything is fine, he can change the color to green. The aim is to help other moderators and admin in the re-reading, checking of posts.
When someone will post again on that topic the ligh will become orange again.
Now if a moderator feels that there is a problrm that needs a discussion with the administrator or want to highlight that topic he can put the topic to red. It will stay this color until an admin or moderator takes care of the problem and make it green again.
To simplify the task, lights are included in viewforum and the search page so you can see if a specif topic has or not benn moderated, you can even sort them and show only green red or orange posts.
You can also access and change several lights at once with the moderation console modcp.
Hope you like it
