Mod Feature: Hide "Approve" link unless required

For mods all posts show an "approve" link that AFAIC does nothing since there's no subchan setting to force posts to require mod approval.
Perhaps the link has some utility I haven't encountered yet. Still this feature request should apply regardless: hide the "Approve" link unless the post actually requires approval.

Thanks for info. I'm guessing that means that if a post gets reported a mod can hit Approve to clear the reported status? Still doesn't seem to justify having the approve link there if a post hasn't been reported.

Exactly

Agree
If a post is getting spam reported, you can just click Approve to clear reports for that post and stop future reports.
Does that preclude some "if { post = $reported } then { show($approveLink) }" type action though?
nah you can approve a post from the get-go, like reddit.
