# Set up the moderation flow for your project

With Bpart, you choose per project how you moderate: beforehand (pre-moderation) or afterwards with AI as a safety net (post-moderation). This article explains how to set the moderation mode and personalise your confirmation pages. Want to know when to choose what first? [Read all about the moderation flow.](https://support.bpart.eu/en/article/moderating-your-online-debate-on-bpart-z4z074/)

### The default setting

A project is set to **pre-moderation** by default. If you want to use post-moderation, you switch **deliberately**.

> You change this setting as an administrator. It sits at **project level**: you can choose it separately for each project.

---

### Where do you find the setting?

You can set the moderation mode in two places:

* In your **project settings**, under the **Moderation** tab.
* Via the project settings wizard: use it when setting up your project, or launch it from the top of your project dashboard.

### Switching to post-moderation

1. Go to your project settings, **Moderation** tab.
2. Click switch **to post-moderation**.
3. You'll see a short explanation of the consequences. Confirm your choice, or cancel to stay on pre-moderation.
4. **Save** to make the change final.

In the confirmation you read what changes: new entries are published immediately, unless AI flags them as potentially inappropriate. AI-flagged entries then appear in your moderation list for approval, and automatically published entries can still be moderated afterwards. The change applies **only to new entries**: existing entries keep their current status.

### Personalising your confirmation pages

After submitting, a participant lands on a **confirmation page**. You can customise the title, the text and the button (call-to-action) of that page yourself. Until you edit them, we show a default text.

You can set each page via your **project settings**. Which page a participant sees depends on your moderation mode:

* **Pre-moderation:** the confirmation page after submitting an entry.
* **Post-moderation:** in addition, two extra pages appear — one for a **published (non-toxic)** entry, and one for a **held (potentially inappropriate)** entry.

You fill in these texts **per project language** (NL, EN, FR, DE). Changes apply to entries submitted after saving.

---

### Switching back to pre-moderation

Want to return to control beforehand? Switch back **to pre-moderation** the same way. Here too you first get a short explanation: new entries are no longer published automatically and require your approval. Confirm and save. This change also applies only to new entries.

---

### Good to know

* You can **flexibly adjust the moderation mode across the phases** of your project. Think of an open ideas phase in post-moderation, followed by a phase in pre-moderation.
* A change is **not retroactive**: entries already submitted keep their status.
* AI moderation stays active as a safety net in both modes, and you always keep the final say. Want to know more about moderating? [Read our tips and tricks.](https://support.bpart.eu/en/article/tips-and-tricks-for-moderating-your-online-debate-1fr4j7j/)
