How to moderate the community with several moderators?

Until today I was the only moderator of Deezer Community FR https://fr.deezercommunity.com/

From the the backend I am consider as an Administrator and I have been responding to topics since "Overview". When a topic has been reviewed, it no longer appears in bold. This allows me to consider that the topic is treated.

But, for a few days, my colleague Swanny has been helping me on the Community as a Moderator from the backend. But there is a problem: when she responds to a topic it's always appears bold from backend (CF screenshot) I would like that when she responds to a topic this one is no longer shown in bold and considered treated.

How to do?

And if there is another way to work better from backend with different collegues can you please give me advices? 😊

Thanks !

Ah ok, good to hear that! 🙂

Yes, I agree with that 100%. Having spend countless hours in the control environment, I know how much time changes like these could save for all people involved...

Hi all! :)
@Jurgen Good suggestions! I also remember the issue with accidentially opened topics - however you can also mark the topic as unread (top right in topic view), then the "status" field will reset.
Awesome, I had no idea this option was buried there :D
@Julian
Turns out, this feature doesn't quite work out for us. We have a filter 'New topics without a reply' and 'New replies' so that we have two mutually exclusive lists of topics. If you 'mark as unread', the control environment counts it as a brand new topic and not as a new reply to an existing topic. That means it disappears from our filters if the topic has any replies.

Back to the drawing board I guess ...



I found a workaround for this :)

If you add a filter ‘New topic’ and you sort by ‘Status’, the New topics that have a reply (which we have the other filter for) are pushed down and the ‘New topics’ are sorted by ‘Last active’ (by sheer luck).

If you mark a Topic with replies as unread, it shows up in your ‘New topic’ filter and above the new topics with a new reply. So all you have to do is use this filter 'New topics' instead of 'New topics without a reply' and ignore the new topics that have replies which the "+1" status makes clear enough.

This is a super useful topic thread and I have learnt a few things here that I wasn't even aware of!

Some changes to ways of working in my team are now in progress, thanks all!!
