Rejected Message notice

Location in desktop browser: Left menu > Admin > Preferences > Notices

Location on mobile device: Bottom of page > More > Admin > Preferences > Notices

The Rejected Message notice is sent when a moderator rejects a pending message from a moderated member or a message in a moderated group or topic. The way it is handled depends on the method the moderator uses to reject the message.

If the moderator rejects the message by email (uses the rejection link in a “Message Approval Needed” email notification), the Rejected Message notice can be sent automatically. To be sent automatically, the notice must be the active notice (set to Active Message). If no Rejected Message notice is set to Active Message, none will be sent.

If the moderator rejects the message on the group’s website, the text box for the rejection notice is initially left empty. The moderator can write the entire message by hand or select a Rejected Message notice as the initial text.
