New Community 'Promote' badge icon meaning

genthusiast

I was looking at a Community profile and see a new badge icon:

The hover description shows Promote. What does that mean?

Maybe you're due for a raise/rise in pay?😎

Gordon Collett

Congratulations! Great to see you are the first to have achieved .........?

genthusiast is not the only, but is the only I've noticed with more than one.

I think it means someone clicked the "promote" button under one of your posts.

Áine Ní Donnghaile

@Maile L There is no "promote" button visible for me. Is it possibly only visible - and therefore only available - to a Mod/Manager?

Maile L

Very interesting @Áine Ní Donnghaile. This is what I see. It looks like your guess would be correct.

Áine Ní Donnghaile

I can see on which comment I received a "Promote" but I can't see who gave it. Normally, I can see who liked or agreed with a comment or post.

Maile L

I wonder if I can see that on my end. Send a link if you want me to check

Thanks @genthusiast for asking about this. We will investigate this further. Thanks @Áine Ní Donnghaile , I did not know that y'all do not have a promote button.

Gordon Collett

So what does having that promote button clicked by a moderator actually do? Anything?

Áine Ní Donnghaile

Cause confusion?

Maile L

No Gordon, it it just another thumbs up type of thing.
