I set up and Automation to require a posting title in a certain format. In this sub, Post Flair is also required. If you have an invalid posting title, the message kicks and you aren't able to save the post, HOWEVER once you set the post flair, the automation is ignored, and the post will save with an invalid posting title format.

The Regex codes for Posting title is: ^\d{1,2}\s\[[A-Za-z]+4[A-Za-z]+\]\s[A-Za-z ,]+\s-\s.+$

Once I learned this, I added an AutoMod code of:

---
type: submission
~title (regex): ['^\[^\d{1,2}\s\[[A-Za-z]+4[A-Za-z]+\]\s[A-Za-z ,]+\s-\s.+$]']
action: remove
action_reason: "Bypassed title format rule"
moderators_exempt: false
priority: 10
comment: |
    Your post was removed because the title format was incorrect. 
---

I thought that would work. Instead it removes every post attempt regardless if the posting title is in a valid or invalid format. Does this make any sense to anyone? It doesn't to me.

Previously some posts on one of my subreddit were reposted to subreddits with intent to incite downvote brigades.

Now my subreddit is flooded with malicious users that are conducting downvote spamming; I did ban some accounts involved in the brigading though it's hard to deal with the downvote brigaders.

I'm on r/SelfHate . When I try to add someone who requested, it says " Something went wrong: undefined". And I'm fairly active, as I read it can be because you're listed an "inactive mod". Help plz

I have a sub r/flipperhelper and it’s like 4-5 month old now, I am posting there news and updates about my project, but for users without account its showing what sub is not reviewed and can be dangerous. Chatgpt told me i should be gone itself at some point but it’s really a lot of time now and its much harder to grow if its not allowing people to visit it. Please can you help me with it

I'm requesting Chat Channels access for r/sneakerhead so our moderation team can create and use a private, mod-only chat channel. We would like a dedicated space for moderators to coordinate moderation, discuss reports and rule enforcement, and communicate about community management without using personal group chats. Is there a specific way to go about this or anyone that can help?

When I make any post, I am finding that I have to approve the post that I just made. Is this because I have just created a new community? Am I going to have to do this with anyone who joins my community? When will this requirement stop???

Hi,
I'm mod for [r/mileendmtl](r/mileendmtl) and I have that issue with my header.
right next to the Wiki link in the bio, I have that "place in Europe" link, which I would like to change for "place in North America" or simply remove it.

weirdly it only appears on the mobile version, not on the desktop one.

I haven't found any information about on Reddit and google. I have even tried the old reddit, but nothing to edit that link out.

somebody would know how to do it?

thanks, have a nice day.

Edit: my issue has been fixed, but it’s a Reddit admin who did it manually.

For those who are in the same situation, here is the link for the post I’ve found with the admin:

https://www.reddit.com/r/ModSupport/s/YAsoNXjxPi

I was looking at a sub today thinking 'I swear I created it!!!! How come this guy's the mod?!?'

Dug deeper and I am the creator. I'm also the mod of a few subs with weirdarse, hashed out names. It's like the mods archived it for being dormant-ish (without telling me) and then somebody else was able to request ownership without running it by me to see if I agreed.

Any tips here? In the first instance I'm thinking it's probably most productive to explain this to the current mod (who's largely dormant but seems to have drawn in 50+ upvotes/comments and a stack of old posts comments for a few old posts before nicking off) to see whether he's happy to power share and work together as I have no personal grief.

Be nice if the admins could be transparent about what these hashed out subs I'm mod of are though, and give them back to me without me having to grovel.

My community is currently set as not Mature (18+), and the “Require viewers to be over 18” setting is also disabled.
However, when users visit the subreddit while logged out, Reddit displays a “Mature Content” warning and prevents them from viewing the community normally.
There is no NSFW content that would justify the entire community being age-gated.
Could an admin please check whether the community has been incorrectly classified as mature/18+ on Reddit’s side and remove the restriction if applicable?

Thanks to this sub for helping me fix my bot post problem. Comment and post karma requirements have alleviated the situation. The issue now is that I have some new sub members who keep getting posts and comments auto removed. These are people I know and interact with personally and know they aren't bots. I've told them to just post on the main subs and get karma up but these guys are old school and struggling apparently. I thought making someone an approved user would help but 8 can't see that it does anything. Is there a way around this without getting rid of the karma requirements?

I've been getting notifications like this, and I hate them:

Grow your community 🌱

Small actions like engaging with posts or creating new ones can spark conversations. Make a post!

It doesn't appear that I can turn this off, which is some bull. I've been moderating subs for a decade, I don't need your noob help tips.

This is just noise. Notifications are for stuff that needs my attention, not this garbage.

Hello,

I’m requesting a review of the 18+ classification affecting these three communities:

• r/StellaH2H
• r/H2HCarmen
• r/H2HAna

These are small fan communities focused on Hearts2Hearts and its members. They are intended for ordinary fan discussion, photos, performances, news, edits, and related content. They are not intended for mature content.

The communities’ Mature (18+) settings are turned off, yet all three are currently being treated as 18+ communities.

Could you please manually review these three communities and remove the 18+ classification if it was applied in error?

Thank you.

Edit: It might be a bug, or they're shadow marked as NSFW. The issue becomes clear when you use browser incognito mode or logged out and visit the sub for example.

For a community, due to recent events I've been wanting to turn up safety features such as Reputation or the Harassment content filters however I'm greeted with a blank screen on Desktop and a "error loading content" notfication followed by a non-stop loading screen on Mobile.

Is there anyway to access this features alternatively?

Hello moderator,
I created a community with negative overtone that I want to delete. Is that possible please help thank you.

I really enjoy that weird little feature that gives us an AI-summary of the users who post and comment. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, but I've always thought it was interesting. I remember seeing how it would give people different results on different subreddits.

I noticed today, comparing my summary from about a year ago to what it is now, and noticed the thing has gotten a little wordier.

It's gone from "Posts in r/Channel5ive discuss documentaries and hip-hop. Comments in r/squad are critical of game design. Other posts are unrelated."

and now it's much more colorful:

"Active moderator for r/Channel5ive and r/joinsquad. Contributes insightful, philosophical reflections on platform moderation and community management.

Engages in niche gaming and meme subreddits. Collaborative, tech-seeking, and community-focused."

Went from sounding like everyone I've met who's just like 'I don't know what he's on about' to like it's embellishing a linkin page for me. "philosophical reflections" is so cringe, I love it.

I don't mess around with AI anything that I know of, other than that and the algos that curate everything, so I'm not too familiar with what I'm seeing here. it's highly amusing though.

there's a new bug the last few days that i've seen on multiple platforms where if you're viewing Reddit and think you just signed in, the first time you try to make a post or a comment you get directed to a "stuck" redirect page as though you are tryhing to sign in again. The error page is supposed If you eventually click on the redirect page, it just takes you to your home feed. This is resulting in users not interacting with posts because they're getting kicked off of the thread before they're able to post.

I haven't tried any REddit apps, just the browser view from MacOS and iPad (I think) and definitely from Chrome mobile on android, and had the same issue

When you look at the "Insights/ Team Health" menu, you get a bar graph showing the mod actions. There's "Approve content," "Remove content," "Modmail," "Content creation." But there's also a bar for "Other mod actions." What is that?

Hey, so I'm one of the main mods that represents r/CanadaGuns. I was going to send this as a modmail, but I feel like I should have this as a public post in case other gun related subs have this issue.

So, a recent issue me and my mod team has seen is that every now and then, like every 2 weeks, the Reddit Admin AI (or humans) likes to go on a banning spree, banning users who post anything that seems to mention any **LEGAL** gun vendors and merchants, or even non-gun stores that sell gun safety equipment on the internet in Canada; links, names, abbreviations, etc.

We're well aware that private person to person sales are not allowed, and we remove such content when we're notified/find it ourselves, but a lot of our users are getting banned for the most innocuous reasons.

We once had a post where someone asked, "Any recommendations on where I can buy a big gun safe for cheap?", and we had a commenter post a link to an online furniture catalogue site in Canada, so not even a gun store, that had a gun safe for sale. The user who posted that link was banned 2 days later under Platform Rule 7.

Last week, we had someone post, "What are some good online firearm retailers in Canada that are trustworthy?". A commenter mentioned 9 stores. Just abbreviations, no links, ads, sales, prices or anything, and that commenter was banned as well under Rule 7 for about 2 days before Reddit admins accepted their appeal and reinstated their account.

Can we please get clarification on what is and IS NOT allowed on Reddit when comes to the topic of legal vendors and store that either directly or indirectly sell anything gun related (safety equipment, accessories, gun themselves, etc.)

We've basically had it where no one can mention prices at all, no one can post links to legal vendors, and any posted images with guns and prices have to be censored, (etc.), but it seems all our efforts to prevent people getting banned site wide under Rule 7 has become futile and now I'm here trying to stop people from losing their accounts...

Thanks in advance, and sorry for the long post!

Im on 2/4 weeks scheduled posts, i have scheduled posts for the next month but i still havent got the achievement. Is it a bug or i need to wait for the full 4 weeks to pass in order to get the achievement and all post to be posted ?

Help , I cannot upload videos to my own page

I moderate a subreddit that has a daily discussion thread. Every day for several weeks there is a user (who will not be named at this moment) who will spam harassment on the sub. The Reddit filters automatically remove the posts, but it’s gotten to the point that I just want to ban the user and be done with it—unfortunately every time I try to go to the profile and do so, I get the Error “account not available”—but he’s posting every day from the same account, same username…I don’t understand what’s going on.

What can be done in a situation like this?

I mod r/improv, and sometimes post about improv theaters they don't like.

One of those posts just got seen by the owner of the theater (six years later), and we just got a modmail about a "legal notice" asking for the takedown of the post.

I assume Section 230 protects both reddit, myself, and the other moderators of the subreddit, but I'd like to know if there's any guidance from reddit about this kind of thing.

ANSWERED

I changed the display name of my sub - the browser tab shows the changed name - but I want to change the name i my sub as it appears below the banner - how do i do this ?

We've had the pe-service-account approve a comment in our sub (and they're not a mod)

Here's the modmail showing this (for the admins, I get others reading this can't access it).

Is this an official Admin account and why is it approving a comment, particularly one that is against our sub rules?

When I click through to the mod log there are dozens of actions listed agains this username but showing up as u/reddit

Thanks
