Hello !Friendica Support,

Is the front end for moderation and reporting posts being worked on yet? For my small instance, this is not yet so important, but I can imagine that there is a need for larger instances.

#friendica #NewFeature #Moderation
@Montag Progress on this feature has stalled, in part to work on the recent release, in part because it's frontend work nobody wants to do. Thanks for the reminder, it's somewhat motivating to know there are people expecting the feature.
@Hypolite Petovan if I have understood correctly, the backend is already finished. That is, when user of my instance is reported by anyone on Mastodon, it looks at Mastodon as if the message was sent correctly, I just do not see it. And that can cause problems.

The display does not have to look very nice, a list with the reason for the message and the message ID is sufficient for now.

Unfortunately I can't help with programming, I can only test. 😉

(I hope Deepl has supported me correctly so that it is understandable what I mean. 😉 )
And yes, I know Friendica desperately needs frontend developers. But I guess even if I take a look at this book on my shelf, I'm not qualified enough 😉
Well, when you read - and understood - that book, then you know more than me.
- and understood -

I fear this may be the problem 😁

The last time I "programmed" something was a more elaborate shell script. And that was probably ten years ago. So I have to start with the basics from the very beginning. 😉

And if I understand everything here correctly, I should actually know something about PHP and Smarty.

Well, I only have a 30 hour job, so I would have time to learn ... 😉
