# Moderation on Steeple

### Overview

Steeple offers moderation tools allowing users and administrators to maintain a healthy sharing environment.

### Tools for all users

#### Report a post

If a post seems inappropriate:

1. Click on the post menu **"..."** of the post
2. Select **Report**
3. Community administrators are notified by notification and by email

#### Report a user

To report a collaborator's behavior:

1. Go to the **profile** of the person
2. Click on the post menu **"..."**
3. Select **Report**
4. Administrators are notified

#### Block a user

Blocking makes it possible to hide a collaborator's activity from your own feed:

1. Go to the **profile** of the person
2. Click on the post menu **"..."**
3. Select **Block**

When a user is blocked:

* Their posts, comments, and messages become **invisible** to you only
* Their profile information is hidden
* Blocking is **reversible** at any time (unblock from the same menu)
* The blocked person is **not notified** of the block

### Tools for administrators

From administration, moderation actions (suspension, deletion, report management) are accessible from a member's actions menu.

#### Suspend an employee

An administrator can temporarily suspend a collaborator's access:

* The collaborator can no longer access Steeple (a suspension page is displayed)
* They no longer receive notifications during the suspension
* The suspension is **reversible** : the account and data are retained
* See the article "How do I suspend or reactivate a collaborator?" for the procedure

#### Delete a collaborator

An administrator can permanently delete a collaborator from the organization. This action is irreversible. See the article "How do I remove a collaborator from the organization?".

### What the assistant can do

With the Administration scope, the assistant can suspend, reactivate, or remove a collaborator from the organization. They cannot manage reports or blocks between users.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.steeple.com/en/administration/moderation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
