Description
wpDiscuz Report and Flagging is a WordPress plugin that helps you manage community discussions inside your existing wpDiscuz comment system. It lets visitors report (flag) comments and downvotes when they believe content needs review. Instead of waiting for complaints, your moderators receive clearer signals about what requires attention. The addon automatically moderates and prioritizes items using comment flags and downvote patterns, helping reduce manual workload. For sites using a wpDiscuz setup alongside Elementor or other page-building workflows, the result is a smoother, more community-driven moderation flow.
