I have been made a Moderator of? a groups.io group, mainly to merge and edit topic titles, so we don't proliferate inadvertent topic title changes, when the subject is constant. However, the arrow button that is in the topic listings on the massages page is absent on this group, which contains the message and topic edit function tools. Those tools are present on the two other groups.io groups I am an co-owner for.

I have looked over the list of moderator permissions, but none seem to address this issue.

Short of becoming an owner of that group, where do I find the specific permission(s) that will allow me to see and use the arrow button to the message/topic editing function tools in the drop-down menu? This is so the current owner can enable them for me, so I can combine the inadvertent topic changes.

Thanks for any help you all could give,

Which moderator permissions do I need to be able to access or see the arrow button for Topics, specifically merge and edit topic title tools that normally would be in the arrow drop-down menus? I was specifically added as a a Mod to a group to help merge and keep topics from inadvertently changing when the content is still on the OP's topic?

The three other groups I am an owner for, I do see the arrow button, and can access those editing tools.

I have yet to find any info relating to those tools among the moderator permissions section.

Thanks for any help you can give,

It sounds as though Edit Archives is missing from your list of permissions; if that is not checked then the drop - down arrow will be missing from your Topics view.

As a moderator you can only see your own list of permissions if the Group Owner has awarded you the permission of Set Moderator Privileges. Without that your detailed Moderator Permissions list is hidden from you.

If your group owner wants you to carry out specific functions (in this case Edit Archives) then he or she will have to set that permission for you.

A list of moderator permissions is on this wiki page -?/g/GroupManagersForum/wiki/Promotion%2C-Status-or-Permissions-Change-to-Moderator-or-Owner

Thank you all for your help, I think we now know what to change and where to find the place to make those changes that will allow me to do the mod jobs our owner wants me to be able to do!
