I´ve now installed a moderator function here in the forum.
All this moderator can do is to hide messages if they don´t fit to the forum. (people who sell things, post senseless entries or make a link to a virus)

The message will not be deleted, it just doesn´t appear anymore and I can bring it back if it was a mistake.

Can I ask a few people (long regular visitors) to become a moderator too?
You don´t have to do anything, just if you find a message from a non-regular visitor and you feel I should be deleted, then hide it. You also don´t have to visit the site daily or search for messages, I just want to find some more people so that the forum is always moderated.

There is a link now under every message (Hide this message) or if you use the tree view it´s next to the "Start a new thread" link (Hide)
But you can only hide the message if you first log in in the chat room or quiz game - then you see the ´Hide´ link

Maybe 1 person for every language.
Ans ?
Miriam ?
Nathalie ?
Julie ?

Every moderator can also hide messages in the other forum´s.

I´m here a lot so it´s no trouble for me to do it. I might end up deleting the whole website by mistake though so you´ll have to give me detailed instructions on how to do it !

Ok, I´ll show it to you all.

It´s very simple, and you can only hide 1 message every time (so deleting all would be a lot of work :-) )

It should work now:

1) Make a test entry you want to delete

2) go to the chat room and log in

3) come back, click on your entry and then click on HIDE or ´HIDE THIS MESSAGE´

If you use the BOARD view the Hide this message link is under the name/IP (same blue color)

If you use the TREE view the HIDE link is above the message, right to ´Start a new thread´

Sorry that you have to go to the chat room to log in, but I think this would confuse other visitors if there is a log-in link in the forum

Yes, you have to log in again if you come back later.

If you want to delete more messages at 1 time you don´t have to log in again as long as you don´t leave the site.
