This tutorial will show you how to use the inline moderation tools, this will save you time and effort of having to go into the moderator control panel and having to log in there.
1. At the right hand most end of the forum page, you will see 2 empty tick boxes.
2. For this example I've ticked the box on the top most thread. The surrounding area of the thread has now turned yellow and the number in the go button has now changed from (0) to (1), this tells us there has been 1 thread selected.
3. Now click on the two arrows at the end of the "Delete Threads" button. This now brings up a list of options you can do to the thread it's self or the posts within that thread. What you will see depends upon what permissions the admin as given you.
Now you can perform the same functions as you would normally without having to log into the moderator control panel.
You may still be presented with a password prompt to authenticate the request.
