I’ve just taken over a community from the previous mod who has been inactive seven or so months. How do I remove them from the mod list? I don’t see any options for doing so in the community screen.

    Are you trying to interact with a post while looking at a list of posts in the community, or did you actually open / click on the post first? Only the latter works. The menu is sadly well-hidden and counter-intuitive.

    EDIT:

    Looking at the list of posts: no mod option

    Opening the post and then clicking on the same menu again: mod options availiable. MelodiousFunk is not a mod, so there is no actual “remove as mod” option in that drop-down menu, but the removal option should be in that exact same place for you and your inactive mod.

      I have the post opened, there’s no options there, I just see this:

      Other people, I have the option show up to appoint them:

      Both of those are within the posts themselves.

        Huh…ok, this is indeed weird then. I was able to remove an inactive mod from one of my own communities with that method just fine a while ago … maybe the most recent update changed (or glitched) something about the process?

        Sorry I couldn’t be of more help here.
