Who he is
The moderator is someone with powers more than normal users. This office is entrusted by the admin of the forum, according to the standards that are generally reliable, seriousness and competence. A moderator can be assigned to one or more sections on the basis of his skills.

How to appoint or remove them
To the founder and to the appointed administrators by Manage Admins is allowed to appoint or remove moderators. Simply go to Manage Moderators and put the nick of the moderator in the box.

The powers he has
A moderator, in his section, may:

• deleting the messages of users
• publishing advices, making a thread important, closing it, deleting or moving it to another section
• moving all threads with the appropriate panel linked at the top left of each section and thread

Global Moderator
He moderates all sections to which he was granted access and he is able to see the IP addresses of users who have posted a message in the forum in which he is moderator (though filtered, i.e. without the last figure). You can appoint him by Manage groups. A global moderator has some powers more than a moderator of all sections; they are two different figures.
Contrary to what happens to ordinary moderators, the nickname of global moderators does not appear below the name of the sections on the home of the forum.

How to remove the list of moderators
You can hide the list of a given section by checking off the appropriate flag in Manage moderators.
