Sorting Pending Messages

From PluginWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Sometimes members will submit the same identical message multiple times (the Message Maker can lead to people doing this) or they'll remember something they forgot (like location) and submit a modified version of the same post. These can be difficult to spot in Pending if they get interleaved with other messages - Yahoo displays them in the order they arrived.

The plugin lets you sort the Pending page by the sender, so that all messages from the same person will be grouped together. This makes it easier to spot duplicates, and you can then approve the best message and delete the others.

You turn this on via Features->Advanced:

This sort only applies within a single page - so if you have lots of Pending messages, too many to fit on a single page, then it's possible that messages from the same member will appear on multiple pages.
