How to claim a pending message #howto


 

Is there a way to claim a message pending approval?
I an dealing with a problematic message and I wanted to claim it as you can do with pending members. However, it seems that you can either approve, edit, reject or delete a message but not claim it.
Is it so?

Thank you for your help.
Have a nice Sunday,
Marina

Yes. Click the Edit button, then click Save without Sending.

See?/helpcenter/ownersmanual/1/managing-group-topics-and-messages/handling-pending-messages?(you'll have to scroll down some).

Just editing the message will claim it. You don't necessarily need to save it afterwards.

There is no need to actually edit the message, just clicking [Edit] and then [Cancel] will claim it for you.

I did ask for a [Claim] button - there is one somewhere else, on a pending membership IIRC - but it has never appeared.

Malcom, if you point me to your request I will support it, for what it's worth.
I think that a Claim button on pending messages is needed, not only for reasons of consistency with pending membership, but also because Edit and Claim are two different things and one does not necessarily imply the other.

Best,
Marina

Yes, that's the one Duane :-)

In a later thread, the possibility of an [UnClaim] button (on both messages and memberships) was raised.

Thank you Duane. I replied to / supported Malcom's request on Beta, hoping that Mark will consider it.
