Behavior of Flagged Posts in the Community

If you moderate the campus community, you may see posts that students have been flagged four times as inappropriate. There is a difference between a flagged post and a post that has been flagged four times and thus hidden. You can only filter for posts that are flagged four times and hidden from the Community.

As a Campus Cloud administrator, you can:

• move, delete and approve campus wall posts flagged by users
• see who has flagged a post. 

To view flagged posts in Campus Cloud:

• Log in, click Manage, then click Community
• Click "Filter"
• Click "Status" and choose "Flagged"

Flagged posts appear with a "red flag" and the count of times they have been flagged. A post has to be flagged four times or more to be considered inappropriate.

• To see who has flagged a post, point your mouse at the red flag icon. 

When students flag a post, at first there is no visible change in the campus app. A post that has been flagged 4 times will disappear until a Campus Cloud administrator approves it. 

• To move, approve or delete a post, click the down arrow () nest to the post. 

Behavior of flagged posts in the community: 

• If the post is approved, it becomes visible on the campus app for students to see.
• If deleted, the post is removed from the campus app and the community.
• If you move the post to another channel, it appears in the new channel but the flags remain.
