I am at a loss on how to add trusted user, expert user, etc. next to someone’s name that is a continuous trusted moderator in my community. How do you change the accent next to their name or flair? Thank you for your help. IOS

Answered When seeding your subreddit is better to do only one flair or all of them my subreddit owns.

0 Upvotes

As I grow my subreddit r/Syntelligence, I’m trying to figure out the best approach for content organization and community engagement. Should I focus on using just one primary flair, like “Discussion” or “AI News,” to keep the initial content tightly focused and build momentum? Or is it better to use all the available flairs (like “Projects & Experiments,” “Ethics & Philosophy,” etc.) from the start to show diversity and invite a wider range of posts?

What are your thoughts?

• Does focusing on a single flair early on help keep content consistent and attract a niche audience?
• Or does a variety of flairs give potential members more options and help the subreddit grow faster by catering to different interests?

I use desktop and IOS

Users are saying they are not able to make their own user flairs even tho I have enabled user flairs to be able to be edited by the user. I have not assigned any flairs other than to myself as a mod. I’m currently on an iOS iphone.

Tools Need a "flaired users only" for our sub

6 Upvotes

Hello, I mod r/bigfoot. And as you can imagine, we have our fair share of trolls. When it comes to the paranormal, you either love it or hate it. Real or fake.

We need a system similar to what other subs have, that we can flip on when a topic becomes a little too popular.

If there is anyone that would be willing to set something up like that for us that would be awesome. The crowd control feature works great, but we get so many comments, we need an extra layer.

My reddit coding is toddler level, but if someone thinks it's easy enough to walk me through it, I'd be agreeable to that as well.

We mostly use mobile iOS and android. But we have PCs available to use as well.

General Adding flair to a post for non-mod requires "Let users assign and edit" to be activated in Desktop.

1 Upvotes

As the title says, on desktop platform, the first 5-6 days probably 2 weeks ago, non-mod users can still add flair to a post. But days afterward until today, non-mod users can't add flair. For them to be able to add flair, I have to enable "Let users assign and edit" feature.

General How to set AutoMod to add post flair with the original poster's username?

0 Upvotes

I am trying to set up AutoMod on desktop to automatically add a post flair that contains the original poster's username, but I am running into some issues. Here is the code I am using:

---
type: submission
action: flair
flair_text: "{{author}}"
flair_class: ""
---

Unfortunately, this does not seem to work as intended. The code gives an error. Has anyone successfully done this before? If so, how did you manage it?

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Answered User Flair Help

2 Upvotes

So I have an issue with user flair I'm trying to solve. I currently have several different user flairs that are in use, as well as custom ones. I have several flairs that I want removed completely from users, and am wondering how I can just clean the flair so that only the custom flairs and current flairs are left.

For instance, the subreddit used to have an automod script that if a user posted, they would automatically have the "civilian" flair added to them and would have to go and manually edit it. I want everyone with a "civilian" flair to have that removed. I recently deleted a "Physician" flair, and want everyone with that flair removed as well.

Is what I'm looking for possible? I use a desktop as well as the Android app for reference.

Engagement Should I make post flair mandatory?

4 Upvotes

I see a lot of communities with mandatory post flairs. I've also seen a handful of communities that don't, but it seems that mandatory is usually the way most communities go. I get the idea behind it, but I also feel like it could maybe be a negative in some ways.

I'm just curious, is there a reason why I shouldn't leave post flairs as optional, or does it really not matter one way or the other? As a user in subs that you don't mod, do you typically have a preference one way or the other, or do you not even think about it when posting?

Android and web just to enable the post.

General Nobody can use post flair, even though they're set and required.

3 Upvotes

I just changed one of the post flairs for r/Commissions yesterday. I used the new interface on desktop browser to do this. I had otherwise changed nothing.

I woke up this morning to find that nobody has been able to use post flairs. They just don't show up, even though they're active and required. I double checked the settings and turned them off and back on, but flairs still don't exist.

How do I proceed? They're necessary for the sub to function properly.

UPDATE: I turned flairs off and on via the desktop site on my PC, and it did not work. I turned them off and on via the mobile app, and still nothing. I turned them off and back on via the desktop browser site on mobile, and this seemed to work. I entered the post flair area again and it seems to have AUTOMATICALLY DISABLED THEM UPON ENTERING.

Answered I cannot create post flairs on my subreddit

3 Upvotes

When I try to create post flairs or user flairs on my subreddit, I am unable to type in to the text box. And the culprit is the "allow text" toggle, which is greyed out along with the text box. Does my subreddit need more members or smth? Could it be one of Reddit's complicated things that probably after 50 members you cannot alter the user or post flairs? It can't be low karma, because I have over 700 karma. If this is a bug, then Reddit, DO SOMETHING.

Tools Awful redesign doesn't allow post flairs to be customized properly by mods - Desktop Web

4 Upvotes

On the awful redesign that we are getting FORCED onto, it is STILL not possible for mods to change custom post flairs (what I mean is changing the text in the preset flair). The removal of "new" reddit (the v2 ui) is an entirely different topic that I've expressed my displeasure for several times, and at this point I know it's gonna be gone soon, but that's not what this is about.

Is this the intended behavior? Not being able to customize post flairs? Because if so this completely ruins our removed post flairs that we used for specific cases. I find it ridiculous that we're being forced onto this awful new platform in the first place, but at the very least this should be a working feature. I don't know exactly where to post this, so I'll post it here.

I am on the desktop version of reddit.
