c. Reported - This contains all reviews that have been reported to RaveCapture.

Next to the tab name is a number in parenthesis which is the number of entries in each tab.
Moderation Settings
Automation options can be found within the Moderation Settings tab including:
Profanity Filter
Convert Customer Name to First Initial
Auto Publishing - The default setting is to publish 3+ star reviews
Flagged Keywords - Words added here will "flag" a review containing the word and do not need to be an exact match. For example, the keyword "test" will flag a review that contains "testing"
Searching & Filtering
Within the Published and Unpublished Tabs, you will have the ability to search and filter content easily.
You can search by the following terms:

Add Customer Service Tag
Our tagging feature is a great way to let customer service teams keep track of reviews. For example, let's say you want to notify other team members that a review needs a response.
To do this you would click on:
Actions > Add Tag
Type in the name of the tag "ex: needs review" or select an existing tag
Click Save
Responding to Reviews
When a customer writes a review for your business (good or bad) it's always nice to follow up with a personalized message. Responding benefits the customer, because it shows them you care, and appreciate them for utilizing your company. It also benefits prospective buyers on your site, because it shows your great customer service in action.
We support two types of responses:
Public
Private
The difference is that public responses are shown on your website & emailed to the customer, while Private responses are only emailed to the customer.
One additional benefit is the ability for customers to change their review content after you've responded to them. In the above image, the customer was upset and a response was sent to her. When the customer receives your response, they will have the ability to update their review stars & review content.
Be sure to check out our in-depth guide on Responding to Customers.
Reporting a Review
In some circumstances, it may be necessary to report a review to RaveCapture. When a review is reported, the following process occurs:
Review is moved into the "Reported" Tab in the moderation area
Review is hidden from your site
Our Moderation Team begins to review the issue
If the review does indeed meet the requirements for being reported, it will remain reported. However, if the team has questions, we will follow up within 5 business days.
The following reasons are supported in RaveCapture:
Spam
Inappropriate
Irrelevant
Test Review
To report a review select the red "report" button located under each review, then select the reason, and add your comments in the free text field.
For the Customer Content area on the left, you will notice a few items as well:
Customer Name
Date
Location (if available)
Email
Order #

Share to Social Media
Reviews can be shared on Social Media by selecting the desired platform icon on the right column of reviews. More information about sharing reviews on social media can be found here.
Bulk Actions
If you need to perform the same action on many reviews at once, our bulk actions will save you considerable time. We currently support the following bulk actions:
Report
Hide Last Name
Hide Full Name
Publish All Visuals
Visual Reminder
To use a bulk action, you must have at least 1 review checked on the left. Then click on "Actions" at the top and select the action. Once you confirm the action, all reviews will be updated instantly.
