Open

These reviews have been created by the user and are at a state other than 'Closed'.

Review needs fixing

A review will match this filter if the review enters into an undefined state because something went wrong with storing the review state. A moderator can use this filter to find the review and then change the state to something sensible.

It is highly unlikely that any reviews will be found under the filter 'Review needs fixing'. But if reviews start appearing there regularly, please raise a support request.

Search Box (Quick Search)

Quick Search is the search box in the top right-hand corner of the Dashboard.

You can find a review by searching for:

  • Review IDs - must be in the format CR-xx
