I must be missing something, but I can't work out how an Administrator performs Moderator actions, i.e. moving posts and making them sticky. As an admin I can edit and delete posts, but I can't move them or do other stuff.
My administrators aren't Moderators, and I don't want to make them so as I don't want the admins being shown in the moderators list.
I fear I'm going to have to modify the source to allow this ability, but I really hope not! If so, it's a bit of an oversight, no?

I dont know of a way to do this without admins showing in the moderator list, although this is no oversight, it's as intended, on alot of forums, moderators and admins are different entities with distinctly different roles, and when one user fullfills both they can just be a secondary member of the moderators group. If you're going to modify the code, I reccomend editing your moderator lists to not display users who's primary role is administrator, I think this would be the easier change.
 Kindest Regards,

Cool, good tip, thanks James. You're right in that our roles are distinct; we don't want admins getting sent PM's and Emails for moderator issues, but admins still need to 'work' the forums.
Keep up the good work...
