After you have created a SharePoint 2013 community site
site collection, you should then choose and assign an initial list of
moderators to the site. Unless you are willing to undertake all
moderation tasks, you should identify other moderators as early as
possible. Effective site moderation is a key for user adoption, so your
moderators should be ready and available prior to sharing the site with
other users.
-
On your community site, click the Settings button (the small gear
icon next to the name of the logged-on user). On the menu that appears,
click Site Settings. -
On the Site Settings page, in the Users And Permissions section, click the Site Permissions link. -
On the Permissions page, locate the group named [Site Name] Moderators, where [Site Name] is the name of your current site. Click the name of the group.
Try This
Add yourself to the site moderators group. If you are already the
site owner, you will not necessarily need this access, but you can
practice the steps required.
Tip
If you are unable to add a user to the site moderators group, this
might be because you do not have the system rights to edit this group.
Contact the owner of this site or IT if you receive any access denied
messages.
-
On the People And Groups page for your moderators group, click the New link. -
In the Share dialog box that opens, type the first few letters of a
user name or full name for each moderator. The system prompts you with
partial matches as you type ahead. Select and add each user. -
Type the text that you want to send in an email to each moderator.
This should describe the reason that you’re making them a moderator and
any follow-up instructions that are needed. -
Click the Show Options link to expand the dialog box and display additional information. -
To automatically notify each moderator via email, in the expanded
portion of the dialog box, select the Send An Email Invitation check
box. -
Click the Save button to complete the process, add the moderators, and send the email notification.
