Need Help!!!!

vincitytaymodaimovincitytaymodaimo New
in Vanilla 2.0 - 2.8

I ran into some problems when testing vanilla.
One of the big ones being that A moderator can delete all of the content of an Admin.
Also... I need to have the option for a moderator not to be able to ban another moderator.

Is it possible?

    You would have to create a custom plugin for that.

    Or find trustworthy moderators...

    I agree. Seriously now, that is what moderators are for, managing the forum and content, and if you do not want that, don't have moderators on your site :lol:

    BTW, I think an Admin can revoke moderator activities and restore content.

    If you worry about admin discussions designed to convey the forum policies, then you can put these in a special category and revoke moderators' permissions to delete those. If you worry about moderator comments, as mentioned earlier, those can be recovered.
    But more importantly, as R_J wrote, don't give moderator rights to those you don't trust.
