Multi-moderation is a very useful feature for moderating busy forums. Multi-moderations allow you to define 'canned responses' which can be stamped on a topic at the touch of a button: these responses can include text as well as topic modification actions.\n\nFor example, a multi-moderation could be set to allow a developer to automatically mark a bug-report as fixed with a 'Thank you, confirmed' message, that closes the topic.

Discussion forums are a communication tool for site users, based around topics of conversation located within forums.\n\nDiscussion forums are organised into a hierarchical structure (also known as a tree structure, as illustrated in the diagram). The forum you view when you visit the [concept]discussion forums[/concept] is the [concept]root forum[/concept] in the hierarchy, and contains child forums ([concept]sub-forum[/concept]s), which may themselves contain child forums, and so on. Within each forum there may also be [concept]topic[/concept]s (known as threads in some other software). And within each topic, there are one or more [concept]post[/concept]s.

Apart from forums, topics, and posts, there is one additional organisational construct in the inbuilt forum system: forum groupings (known as 'categories' in some software). However, forum groupings have a very limited effect on organisation. The system stores a number of groupings, and any forum, at any position in the tree can be 'tagged' against one of these groupings: the groupings have no effect on, and are not a part of, the forum structure, and all they do is group up sub-forums of the same forum grouping visually. By default, every forum is of the forum grouping 'General' and hence all sub-forums are grouped under this when displayed.

Emoticons (also known as smilies) are little images used to convey 'emotion' within text. These are an important part of informal communication on the Internet, as body language and tone are not available to (sub-consciously) transmit the same information.\n\nWithout use of emoticons, it can be impossible (unless the writer took great care to express themselves fully) to gauge unwritten details, such as the importance of what is being written, or the writer's emotional perspective on it.

The default value this field will take. For a list field type, this should be all the possible values, separated by '|'; the default value should be the first. For a picture field type, this should be the maximum width in pixels then <tt>|</tt> then the maximum height. For a checkbox field type, enter '1' if it is to default as ticked (checked).
