Remove inappropriate content

When users encounter inappropriate content posted by other users, they may choose to report it. As a Site Administrator you can review reported content using the embedded Inappropriate content report.

1. Go to Quick-access menu > Reports > Manage embedded reports.
2. Scroll down to find the Inappropriate content report.
3. Click View.
4. For each reported content item, select either Remove content or Allow content depending on whether or not you consider the content appropriate.

By default you can search by User's Fullname or report Status. However, as this is an embedded report a Site Administrator can customise the available search fields and filters.

This report displays a list of posts that have been reported by users. Each row will show the User who posted the reported content, as well as the Content posted and the Date reported. Each row also includes a Link to the resource or comment. Finally the report displays the Status of the reported content. There are three options for the Status field:

• Action required: This status indicates that the reported content has not yet been reviewed by a Site Administrator. The Site Administrator needs to decide whether these reports should be Removed or Allowed.
• Removed: This status indicates that the reported content was reviewed by a Site Administrator and was deemed to be inappropriate, and was therefore removed from the site.
• Allowed: This status indicates that the reported content was reviewed by a Site Administrator and was deemed to be acceptable, so has not been removed from the site.
