So last Sunday, I briefly checked our community queue (like any CM with no self-control would do) and saw that our CEO had replied to a customer. We always have pre-mod on during holidays and weekends and I had a minor freak out worrying he’d be frustrated his post got caught in the approval process. He was fine with it, but it reminded me I need to figure out how to let employees bypass pre-mod.

I think the most obvious solution is to add all employees to the Superuser role as we’re not using it otherwise, but is there a better way?

Also, at some point over the past year someone on my team apparently deleted the Superuser role from the role list. I’ve added it back by just recreating a Superuser role, but is that enough or was there more behind the scenes?

Thanks!

Hi ​@jillian.bejtlich !  🙂 I think that indeed the best solution is to give your employees one of the primary roles that sidesteps the pre-moderation filter: Administrator, Community Manager, Moderator or Super User.  I can’t think of an easier way.

Note that it’s the primary role called ‘Super User’ that you need to select in this case.  It’s not possible for anyone to delete a primary role.  I had a quick peek in your community and I can see that you have a Super User primary role (that’s there in all of our communities) and a Superuser custom role.  It’s possible that someone deleted your custom role at some point.
