Read-Only Chat For Moderation Permission Issue

Hello,

Our moderators are needing to see the read-only chat for moderation. We have enabled “Access read-only chat (must be 18+) and configure bans for all group experiences”, and granted them the role with this permission. The staff member helping me test is 21+ ID verified and has their son’s account chatting - and they cannot see the messages.

I read the forum post says “With this permission, creators can toggle a ‘read-only chat for moderation’ setting in-game to see every message sent in Experience Chat.”

Where is this setting I need to enable “in-game” to allow this system to work? Am I understanding this correctly?

Thank you

Expected behavior

I expect moderators to be able to see the read-only chat once they are granted this role with the permission.

Hi, thanks for the report!

Is the moderator able to see the “Read-Only View” setting in the experience?

Ah, there it is! None of our ~20 staff members knew about that setting. It’s also not discussed anywhere that I could find on the forums or documentation. I was assuming it was an in-studio setting. I’ll let them know, thank you.

Nice, glad we could help :+1:

Let me check in with the team and see if we can update the documentation so its clear that the mod has to toggle the settings.

Sorry about the confusion!
