Right so I've been thinking about having a kind of notification system that will alert staff when there are moderated threads/posts waiting to be checked on.
My wanted features would include:
*Notify staff of moderated content (staff with the following usergroups will be notified), (input the usergroup numbers here separated by comma's). This will allow them to receive a private message or email when there has been at least X unmoderated items for X hours. The admin can choose whether to PM or email or both via the admin cp.
*(optional) Second option would be to simply put a number in the footer next to the mod cp link to display how much unmoderated content is waiting. For example
