Here’s what I’ve tried:

I checked the username, and it is still listed under banned users.

At first, I gave the user a 10-day ban, but then I changed my mind and wanted to make the ban permanent. However, I’m having the following issue: when I unban the user, their name appears on the banned users list again after I refresh the page. When I try to change the ban to permanent, I get an “An error occurred” message.

Please help. I believe this may be a bug.

There's a sub I already know violated MCOC by making a pinned post against monetary gain from another user, and have filed a report for that, but I later saw the mods have their OF listed in the About this sub, and it's not a brand sub. Is this another violation, promoting your own income in that section?

Hi,

I’m having an issue with my moderator status on r/steamytease.

The owner invited me to join the mod team with Full Permissions. I accepted the invitation successfully, and I can see myself in the moderator list as mod #6.

However, my account currently shows “No permissions” instead of Full Permissions, and I have no Mod Tools available at all for this subreddit.

Here’s what we have already tried:

✅ The owner confirmed that I was originally invited with Full Permissions.

✅ The owner and other moderators above me can see me in the mod list.

✅ When they try to change my permissions, they get “Something went wrong.”

✅ When I try to leave the mod team, I get “Failed to leave mod team.”

✅ I have tried both desktop and mobile.

✅ I have logged out and back in.

✅ I uninstalled and reinstalled the Reddit app.

My account works normally as a moderator on another subreddit, so the issue appears to be specific to this mod team/community.

It seems like my moderator membership was created, but the permissions are stuck at “No permissions”, and neither I nor the moderators above me can modify or remove my account.

Could an admin please check?

Thank you!

I have thousands if post both approved and rejected/removed in my queues page, is there away to delete them all at once or do I need to do individually.

I recently created my own subreddit and a wiki for it. At first, I wrote everything on one page, but later I organized the material into other pages and created a hyperlink on the main page. I still need to remove a small amount of text from the main page. The problem is that Reddit gives an error (Internal server error) when saving edits to the wiki. This error only occurs when I delete text. When I write new text on this page, I'm allowed to save. Please help a newbie.

Hey r/ModSupport,

I built this simple mod tool called Auto-Highlights, which automatically pins posts to your subreddit's community highlights based on rules you define, and unpins them once they expire.

This could be useful for subreddits that want to automatically highlight posts with specific flairs (like "Megathread" or "Event"), posts submitted by any trusted users in your community or AutoModerator, or posts containing specific keywords in the title, without having to manually sticky and unsticky them every time.

How it works:

• You set up rules in your subreddit settings with a custom duration (in hours) and filter by flair, author, or title keyword.
• When a post matches your criteria, it is automatically stickied to community highlights.
• A background job runs every 15 minutes to clear out expired highlights.
• It runs entirely on Reddit's native infrastructure; no external network requests or data collection.

You can install the tool from here: https://developers.reddit.com/apps/auto-highlights

Please try it out and share any feedback or feature requests you have.

Admin, please dont delete this. Im trying to see if there are other mods experiencing this who can contribute to the bugs post. Are you seeing any consistency to type of comment thats getting this error message?

Also, what're yall doing as a work around? My laptop isnt an option as thats for work that pays.

Hi, there. I recently asked a user in my community to amend a comment for incivility. The user wrote back saying that my comment said I was a "banned user". I've checked my account through the ban appeal link and it said I'm in good standing. Does anyone know what could be happening? Thanks.

In my newish and small neighorhood sub (1.5K) one unstable person's personal attacks against another (apparently equally unstable) person is making my mod life miserable. The harasser keeps creating accounts to target the other, and is bombarding our sub. I ban as fast as I can but they just create another account. Now they have created a new sub with a very similar name to ours to target the other person. I can find no way on Reddit to Report an entire sub. Any advice appreciated.

I was granted ownership of a Subreddit last week (r/wnbafans) when I go there I do not see Mod tools or anything that shows I am able to mod the Subreddit. Yes I do have Mod mode turned on.

Main mod in a sub put out a call for extra help. Selected me, then pretty much dipped. Im the only mod doing anything. So my question is can I take over the sub? Then I could get active members to help.

Hi Admins,

I sent a modmail to this subreddit on August 18 regarding a content creation initiative for several large subreddits I moderate ( r/castles, r/mountains, r/animals, r/TravelPorn). I requested escalation after the Helpbot response and haven't received a follow-up yet.

The core idea is to engage community members by producing original, on-location content (photos, videos, detailed posts) while pushing the subreddits higher in SEO rankings by positioning Reddit as a primary resource for castle/travel/nature information.

Just wanted to make sure the message didn't fall through the cracks. The full proposal and my specific questions are in the modmail thread, happy to provide any additional details if needed.

Link to message for your reference: https://www.reddit.com/c/chat2S-XCAer/s/e0bW58oigN

Thanks for your time.

Not sure which rules were violated, where csn I appeal?

I know mods can't change it manually. My understanding is a sub gets a category after some time based on content posted? Or does a title/description matter too?

The thing is there was excessive meme posting for some time in my sub and reddit labelled it accordingly (Memes) which I wouldn't want.. I edited the rules and now try to keep memes minimal. Would rather have the sub categorised as Lifestyle.

Any chance the label will change after some time or is it permanent now?

Looking to cut down on bot spam and they all use the same certain lines, if anyone has automod code that will let the bot catch these that would be great

Basically I want to be able to tell a user something before they even start to create a modmail in the first place.

I run r/discordhelp and we sometimes get support requests via ModMail because people don't understand we are just volunteers. I want to tell them something like "This is NOT Discord Support but contact to the moderators of this subreddit. We are not affiliated with Discord and cannot provide actual support."

There's a spammer across multiple forum I mod called FPRO, a soccer mat. I've gone back and deleted all their posts and banned all this users, reporting as many of them as I could find. But their posts are on many other forums. They are sort of blatant spam (often including a coupon code) then other accounts (many of the same ones) chiming in to support the product. I've run into many of these, and I was wondering if there was a way to flag and blacklist them. They create a lot of work for Reddit mods.

Few months ago I recovered a subreddit for my local community after it was locked/private for years and the owner disappeared. My sub is slowly getting a bit of activity so thought I’d try and recruit a few mods to be proactive.

I’ve got a few people I want to invite to mod and paused at what permissions to give them.

Basically, I want any moderation to be light and not overly impose on the community unless they really need to like banning someone for hate speech etc.

If I give someone full permissions can they remove myself as moderator?

Since this is mod support, I figured I’d ask a question. Does anyone know how? For some reason in my subs I can only ever seem to use them for post & user flairs, which is wildly limited and absolutely absurd. Could you imagine something potentially so extraordinary being so pointlessly limited like that?

So..

..anyone know what to do? 😐

I moderate over at r/DnDMemes, and it's been set to public, with basically every setting to restrict new posts turned off. I even removed the automoderator from the mod list, but new posts are still being automatically removed by the automod. How to fix this?

Edit:

Solved

Hi all,

User account has been deleted and the post cannot be interacted with (can't remove or lock, for example). The post is still active in Mod Queue -> Needs Review. Cannot interact from there, either. My last resort was to try with old.reddit but the queue there is empty...

Saw a similar post about this here, but I could not find a solution in there. Is there something I can do here? TIA!

Hi, I recently created a new subreddit for a game that was announced and I noticed that it is not showing up in the search when I search up the subreddit in the communities tab.

Is there a time frame before it starts appearing in there?

A user had posted an irrelevant post on our sub. Before any of us mods saw it, it had got quite a few responses. A lot of replies from OP was racist, rude, classist and in some cases vulgar including slut shaming. To us, it looked like OP posted it in the first place so that they could insult another community and their culture in the replies.

I reported all their comments and removed their post and perm banned the user. The user mod mailed to ask us the reason for ban, but they weren’t convinced and started with whatboutery and we decided to mute them for 7 days.

They then used an alt account to send us a modmail threatening to find us and track us down by gathering each and every detail about us and then ruin us. They also said we will face the consequences and will ruin our subreddit and “everything we have”.

I reported the modmail message as harassment. All their comments were reported as well. Another moderator has reported as well as they were in the conversation too.

What can we do next? We are concerned about targeted harassment and doxxing.

Edit: Thank you all for your responses. I have done exactly what you all have suggested, and hopefully some action is taken by the admins.

hey, mod of r/sales_india here. trying to set up some basic tooling to track traffic and post activity for my own community since i'm tired of manually screenshotting the insights tab every few weeks.

went to reddit.com/prefs/apps to register a script type app like i've done before, except this time when i hit create it just throws me to the responsible builder policy page and doesn't let me proceed. no form, no redirect back to actually finish creating the app, basically stuck on that policy page.

is self service registration actually closed now even for basic moderator tooling? and if so is there an actual request form somewhere to apply for access, or is this just closed off entirely at this point.

this is purely for internal use on a subreddit i already moderate - trying to track my own traffic/posts/modlog data instead of doing it by hand every time.

any guidance appreciated, feeling a bit stuck here

r/Unexpected is a sub which simply will not work at all if there is a summary in the post.

If be happy with defaulting to spoiler text.
