Moderation
The review queue is available at /admin. Access is restricted by akn ID
scope.
Access requirements
An account qualifies by holding any one of the following:
| Grant | Value |
|---|---|
| Site scope | thoughts |
| Wildcard scope | * |
| Role | Administrator |
Accounts without a qualifying grant are returned to sign-in. Repeated
redirection indicates a valid account without a scope for this site rather than
a failed sign-in. Request the thoughts scope in that case.
Sessions last 30 days from sign-in.
See akn ID for scope administration.
Queue contents
The queue lists each submitted note with the date it arrived. Published notes are listed separately below it.
Actions
| Action | Applies to | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Approve | A submitted note | Publishes it to the board |
| Reject | A submitted note | Deletes it |
| Add | New text entered directly | Publishes without review |
| Remove | A published note | Withdraws it from the board |
Approval and publication take effect immediately. There is no cache layer and no delay before visitors see the change.
Operating cautions
| Caution | Reason |
|---|---|
| Reload before removing a note | Removal acts on list position. A stale page can withdraw the wrong note |
| Avoid concurrent moderation | Two people acting at once can overwrite each other's decisions |
| Rejection is final | Rejected notes are deleted with no recovery path |
| Published notes lose their submission date | Only the note text is retained |
Signing out
Sign-out is available from the queue header. It ends the session immediately and returns to akn ID.
