Moderating Reviews (Group Admins)

Reviews are held for approval unless the site admin has turned on auto-approve. There are two places to moderate them.

Inside the group (group admins)

Each group has a Manage Reviews tab (its label follows the Review label, shown as “Manage …”). It is available to group admins and lists the pending (draft) reviews for that group.

For each pending review you see the author, a short excerpt, the full description, and the star ratings, with two actions:

• Accept - publishes the review. It now appears on the group’s Reviews tab and counts toward the group average. The author is notified (and emailed, if enabled), and the gamipress_bp_group_review action fires.
• Deny - rejects the review. The author is notified (and emailed, if enabled).

The list is paginated using the Reviews per page setting. Prev and Next links appear when there is more than one page.

In the WordPress admin (site admins)

Reviews are a review custom post type, so site admins can manage them under the Reviews menu in wp-admin:

• Approve a review by publishing it, or deny it by leaving it as a draft or trashing it.
• Bulk Approve and Bulk Deny act on multiple selected reviews at once.
• Export to CSV exports reviews with their ratings from the Reviews list.

Notes

• The Reviews tab and rating displays are hidden for groups the site admin has excluded.
• When a member double-submits, the plugin prevents duplicate reviews.
