Any moderator has access to the ModCP. for regular moderators (not Supoer Mods) the link is however not shown in the footer as this would need a heavy query for all users. They can however still access it by going to the URL.
I only made this thread because I had a mod tell me. You don't even let mods use the MOD CP. I was like, what are you talking about? You have inline Moderation like KK is talking about.
He was referring to the Mod CP which is limited access of the admin cp, and therefore I was asking you people if that is necessary and if you use it at all? Because I don't see the need for them to have it, but maybe I'm missing something and should give them more authority.
