This filter allows you to search for posts by action type, regardless of their current status. For instance, if you search for posts with an Approved action, you will see all the comments that at some point have been approved.

Note: This feature is enabled on request — contact your CSM to set a report limit. Dismissed Report: Comment was reported by a user, and a moderator disagreed with the report, allowing the comment to remain approved. Exclude Top Comment: Comment was selected as a "Top Comment" using Viafoura's bridging algorithm, and a moderator manually removed it from the selection. Featured: Comment was manually featured by a staff-level user. Featured Removed: Comment was unfeatured by a staff-level user. Pinned: Comment was manually pinned by a staff-level user. Pinned comments move chronologically to the top of the conversation. Rejected: Comment was rejected. Reincluded Top Comment: Comment was previously excluded as a Top Comment and a moderator has re-included it in the selection. Reviewed: Comment was reviewed by a human moderator. Spam: Comment was detected and tagged as spam by the spam filter. Unpinned: Comment was unpinned by a staff-level user.
