I have just gone through the admin waiting list and found three different posts that are perfectly OK that I want to approve, and they are marked with “Awaiting moderation -Akismet marked as spam”, but the only actionable buttons are to either delete this particular message, or to delete it and remove the user.
Normally, there is an option to Approve the message. Why has it been removed here? I would like to remove these messages from my spam queue and APPROVE them.
The option to ‘Approve’ will only appear in the last one of a topics new posts. So is the case here – that there are newer posts in the topic that DO show the approve button? If not – then if you close down the admin bar list, reload the page and then re-open the admin bar list, does this get corrected?
From what I know and by looking at the code then this is the only condition placed on whether to show the approve options or not – whether it is the last new post in a topic. We use the admin bar here on this site extensively and I have not encountered this happening before nor had any other reports. Which means if there IS a problem it would be nice and useful to understand what is going on.
OK that was it, I just needed to scroll down to the bottom of the thread beyond the reply that had been flagged. Thanks!
