How can we auto-clear abuse notifications for members when their abuse escalation has been appealed/resolved?

This is deeply confusing our members.

This user has had content reported to the abuse queue, it happened because they had repeated lines in their content, it wasn't genuinely 'abusive' but this has completely alarmed the user.

I spoke with them and cleared the problem out of the queue, their account is "now fine" However they now firmly believe their account still has issues and take this problem public (for anyone reading, our Verint community is public and has public members registering).

This appears to be a complete lack of resolution from the workflow, in my opinion, the expected behaviour is that it should auto-resolve and clear this from the affected member's account when their content/account is cleared.

Here's an example of what they see:

Even though this is from 30th June and says "if you do not appeal by" it is very direct and alarming messaging to see without knowing "Should I resolve this? Is it resolved?" and I have to impersonate the user to resolve it for them, and that adds up when you have 10s/100s of users affected like this with false positives or otherwise and becomes a negative experience.

There is nothing in the abuse queue.

What can we do about this? Can this be changed out of the box, and/or is there an automation we can setup that directly addresses this for members where they no longer have content waiting for abuse resolution?

  • Hi  

    We have seen this in some other client communities we are working with - where these users get caught. We did a couple of things to rectify the issue: 

    1. We have re-assessed what the limits were set to for the automation (this is just an example of a demo site we have) - but in some cases we needed to update the minutes count. 

    2.  Under the "related" tab there is another plugin which is the recent content logger - maybe confirm what yours is set to.

    3. Im not sure why - but I can not attach another screenshot - but under moderation options there are some items for the moderation workflow that you could possibly modify (i.e. the appeal time window, etc).

    Looking at the moderation workflow at a deeper level - this does not seem to be something that can necessarily be changed out of the box. To actually clear the message-  because I believe it becomes associated (almost assigned with a user account) It would have to be done with an automation (or other tool)

    This is what I suspect, wouldn't it need some element of logic to it - to check if it was already resolved, and then to resolve it for the member?
