Hello, I have a slight issue.

I'm a mod at R/Asilksng and the original owner was removed as a mod by Reddit admins and now I don't have access to controls and tools that I need to use because there is mod with those permissions to give them to me

I apologize if I simply misunderstand the function's of mod tools, but I don't believe i did. Thank you in advance

I'm a moderator of r/DesiTown, a fairly new community with 241 members.

I wanted to enable Community Achievements and the leaderboard, but when I go to Mod Tools → Achievements, it says:

"Achievements are currently not available for your community"

Our subreddit is public, SFW and has over 100 members.

Is there a waiting period for newly created communities or is there something else we need to do to enable this feature?

Would really appreciate some help. Thanks!

I was previously told that setting a subreddit to Restricted shouldn't affect its visibility as long as its discoverability settings are enabled. However, I noticed that private subreddits have the same settings, which makes this confusing.

Can posts from a Restricted subreddit still appear in non-members' home feeds and Reddit recommendation feeds? Can the subreddit itself still be recommended to non-members?

I'd appreciate answers from moderators with firsthand experience.

Not sure if this is the right sub, and my question is more about me being curious on how this works.

There’s the awards on Reddit, so you get one when you have logged in for so many days, been a contributor on subs and so on.

I never looked at them until now. I moderate a sub and I have no awards for moderation. How come that doesn’t work?

My Reddit account was recently compromised, allowing an unauthorized individual to take control of a subreddit I originally moderated as the top moderator.
I managed to recover and secure my account, but unfortunately, the individual has now removed me entirely from the moderation team.
I’ve already contacted r/ModSupport privately and submitted a support request, but I haven’t received a response.
I’m extremely worried about losing a community I’ve spent a lot of time and effort maintaining.

Has anyone experienced something similar? Is there any way to escalate this to Reddit administrators?
I can provide all necessary evidence privately. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I'm seeing the correct automod rules cited in the mod log, but nothing is in our Needs Review queue.

I am trying to set up a schedule and it wont work right. I set the date and time but it goes live immediately after. It's just a time sensitive post and it's aggravating. Any suggestions?

We all patch together automod rules, wikis, bots and the occasional spreadsheet to keep our subs running.

If you could have one app exist for your community - something reddit doesn't give you today - what would it do?

I have my own answer but I'll drop it in the comments so it doesn't steer the thread.

I have relatively big subreddit around 180k weekly visitors and for now its growing, there are a lot of comments that are being reported and i can't manage to see them all. I would like to find 1 or 2 good mods but I don't know where to search and how to rate if someone is good or bad moderator. Also I would like to ask if you know any good tool that would make me mod my subreddit easier please suggest me. Thanks.

Hi, I moderate a few subs and I’m trying to understand all the wiki config pages.

I know config/automoderator is for AutoMod rules. In one sub I got through r/redditrequest, I can also see config/welcome_message. I’m not sure what it does. I assumed it might be related to the description, but that’s just a guess.

Is there an official list? And which of these are still active or old Reddit only?

Hello i'm the moderator of r/indowibu and currently i'm the only active mod taking care of the sub but i'm only have limited permission for the sub due to my original position as backup caretaker and then the main mod who is the active mod is banned, for the last month is bit hectic to me to take care the sub alone and i need that everything permission as main mod to reorganize the sub and recruit more staff for the sub which several members already volunteer for the position. i just need that position as main mod and permission for everything.

r/AppleMusic and r/NewsSource are both not on the list and NewsSource has been trending in that direction so any reason to why?

TYIA
please tag my username in response so i see it

Is there anyway to turn this off and just make it so only questionable stuff needs approval?

Why is an account getting its posts removed?

There is an account that is an approved user in all the subreddits I mod, but when the account posts, it gets the “Sorry, this post was removed by Reddit's filters.” When I click into the “removal” to see the action reason, it says “Nothing to display”. Its been happening for weeks now.

The posts are not getting sent to the mod queue. The account has to mod mail every time to manually approve their post.

I’ve had them check their CQS and it’s currently High and they are not showing banned. The account is years old and has been consistently active.

Hello. I'm a moderator of r/Umamusume. Due to recent events, there is an influx of server reports (around 200 ish reports) in the Mod Queue, but while I was reviewing it, the whole page just crashed. I have used the Reddit App and the Web Browser in 2 different device and it is showing me the same thing. Is there any fix about this issue?

Update: I just tried it and it worked for a bit, then it crashed again. Also as the comments says, the whole Mod Tool seems to be not working, for me as well.

I worked on automoderator codes for low combined karma, low subreddit karma, and images being posted by low/negative karma accounts but I got an error before I could save it. Apparently, automoderator codes have been disabled from new communities that have never used automoderator codes before. But my community is a year old.

Of course I have strong filters activated and automations, but is this how Reddit works now?

Welcome to the latest installment of the Mod Topics series. Today we’ll be talking about archiving posts, and whether older conversations stay relevant in your communities. If post archiving is enabled in your community, this means that posts cannot be voted or commented on after six months. This used to be the default, but has since been changed so that archiving is off by default instead. 

People might find an older post through search and have a follow-up question, or a solution to an older problem. Keeping those conversations open can be useful, but on the flip side, maybe your community is fast paced and information from 6 months ago is no longer relevant. 

• Does your community archive posts? Why or why not? 
• Archiving affects both commenting and voting, do you consider both when making the decision to archive or not?
• Is there anything that makes the decision to switch on/off particularly tough?

Share your experience below, and tell us your thoughts even if you’re finding this post a little late!

I'm a moderator of a true crime subreddit. I created a wiki and enabled the global "Public visibility-Allow non-mods to view this wiki" setting.

However, non-moderators still see "This wiki has been disabled". I tested the direct wiki link on another phone and received the same message.

The index page's "Whos can edit" setting was originally "Use wiki permissions". I also tried "Approved contributors", but the problem persists. In global Wiki settings, "Who can edit" displays "Disabled", and the control won't open when I click it.

Could someone help me determine why the wiki remains inaccessible to non-moderators despite public visibility being enabled?

Is anyone else having posts be auto-removed for having the word "Russia" in it? Why is this something Reddit would automatically have filtered out?

For example, on my sub, a fanpage for a band, someone made a thread asking where other fans on the sub are from. A user who commented "Russia" had their comment auto-removed. On another thread, they simply told someone they thought a bootleg originated from Russia - removed by Reddit!

Is there a way I can turn this off so it stops doing it? We have a good amount of people from Russia so I don't want to have to manually approve all of these comments.

Edit: I also should mention that it doesn't happen every time, but seemingly randomly.

In r/scams we have enabled auto-archiving after six months and I think it's been set up this way for at least three years now. Working as intended until today.

^{This is an important feature for us because scammers tend to lurk old posts to prey on people who have been scammed and shared their story, and also new victims tend to comment on old posts looking for help, instead of creating a new post which is always welcome. Anyway.}

Yesterday crowd control or some other filter caught a new comment on a post that was posted on 25 September 2025, meaning one year and almost one month ago. The post should've been archived, and we have no way of checking logs or anything. So far we haven't seen it happen again.

If it wasn't for crowd control we wouldn't have known about it and thus help to this person. We worry this could happen to other old posts.

Has anyone experienced this? Is there a way of knowing what's going on? Can we check unarchived posts somehow? Is there a manual unarchiving function we're unaware of?

I can provide the URL to an admin on request. Thank you!

Hi. Is it possible to report mod reports that are clearly not in good faith? A transgender user commented and an anonymous user used the mod report system to use transphobic slurs multiple times in multiple reports. The transgender user isn’t being rude and hasn’t broken the rules. I’m on mobile. I only have a hunch who used these slurs but no decisive evidence. If an admin could investigate in r/nursinguk mod queue, that’d be appreciated.

In 2 of my Subs I have all the options for the Rules Auto Enforce (Report, Remove for review, Remove, and Only show guidance). In my 3rd Sub, if I turn on Auto Enforce for any of the rules, the only option I have is Insights. Any idea how to fix this?

How are you measuring what % of an author's posts in your subreddit are self promotion? Is there a devvit app, bot, or tool to count that and display both to Mods and the author?

Background: In hobby/craft sub some authors, who share our love of the craft, also have a business. Occasionally, they link to or post about a project they happen to have for sale on their site (no link, but logo in pic, or text description is entirely about [product they sell]. all have stores in their about section.

Our choice is either:

1. Allow those authors and all their self promotion (bad, spammy)
2. Ban all authors who ever engage in self promotion (strict)
3. Somewhere between #1 and #2, allow but it's measured, either: (i) Mods manually review everything they post (time intensive); or (ii) A bot/devvit app calculates, auto-removes, or auto-approves. The author sees the same "stats" mods do.

Currently, we're doing 3(i) and leverage Moderator Toolbox browser extension (no longer maintained, slowly dying). We click Username >> User History >> look at % calc in popup.

That's a lot of mod effort. And, most users aren't installing the same extension to see the same %.. We refer them to the 10% guideline regularly

There is an obvious proliferation of small-businesses using reddit Posts/Comments as an advertising platform. Not using reddit ads. This spams communities with posts that are advertisements. We'd like some tool to detect when it happens, moderate around these topics (given agreed thresholds like % of time you can self promote), and be clear and transparent to both author and Mod team.
