Just a quick question,

When a moderator performs an action, such as locking a topic or banning a member, their post consists of text (in their appropriate color) that explains what they did.

I've always been curious as to if the moderators type it in manually, or when they perform an action (such as locking a topic), the text shows up automatically? For my forum I would like to do something similar to this.

Thanks.

nothing is done automatically but manually.

You can you the "reason for Editing" feature when you edit a post thouigh.

I see. So in other words mods and admins color the text manually and type it whatever actions they performed?

If you're talking about the mods here ... that's correct.

Ok then. I always thought there was something they clicked to make the text appear.

Thank you.
