# Post Moderation [Post Moderation](https://clarify.net.au/posts) gives you a post-by-post way to clear your backlog, instead of wading through one giant list of comments. The goal is to get every post to "moderated": meaning someone has looked at its comments and dealt with what needed dealing with.  ## The post board Each card is one Facebook post, showing how many of its comments need review and how many threats it has. Posts with threats sort to the top. Search by caption or filter by date, and use **Show moderated** to include posts you've already finished. ## Reviewing a single post 1. Click **Start reviewing** on a post card. 2. The review wizard shows the post, its comment breakdown by category, any threats, and any unanswered questions. 3. Deal with what needs attention, then click **Mark moderated**. ## Working through everything Click **Work through all posts** in the header and the wizard steps you through each unmoderated post one at a time, advancing automatically as you mark each one moderated. This is the fastest way to clear a backlog after a busy weekend. ## Threats block moderation A post with unreviewed threats can't be marked moderated. Review the threats first (in the [Social Stream](https://clarify.net.au/comments) or the [Threat Log](https://clarify.net.au/threats)) and the post unblocks. This is deliberate: a threat should never be buried by a bulk tidy-up. ## Posts can reopen themselves If a moderated post receives a new comment of a type you care about, Clarify can automatically return it to the active queue. You choose which categories trigger this in [Settings > Alerts](https://clarify.net.au/settings/alerts) under **Post re-open policy**. For example, most teams reopen posts on new threats but not on new spam.
