How to move a post in the Likely Spam queue to the correct category.
When we get a post in the Likely Spam category and the poster put the post in the wrong category the way it is commonly done, is to approve the post and then go and search for it, and then move it to the correct category. This can be time consuming and sometimes you can’t even find the post.
Here is a little trick to move the post to the correct category, from Likely Spam.
Move your cursor to the, three dot menu area and you will see a little grey square with a line part way through it.
Click on the box and another window will open up with, just that post in it.
Underneath the posters name will be your community’s name.
Click on the drop down arrow nest to the community’s name, and all your categories will appear. Click the category you want the post to go to.
Now click the back arrow next to the Google+. This takes you back the to the Likely Spam queue.
The post will still have the old category listed, but when you approve it the post will go to the category you have selected.
I thought everyone knew this trick, until I mentioned it in another forum and to my surprise it wasn’t general knowledge.
Give it a try. I hope this helps you and makes life a little easier

Don't be a stupid spammer!
Spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam ...
Don't do this. It's not good for you. You'll get flagged. You'll get your account suspended.
One of the most common requests for help in the Help Community is when a person has broken the terms of service (related to spam) and have had penalties applied to their account but do not understand ... why?!
They don't think they are a spammer because they have made this super piece of content and shared it with "a few" related communities. But if the posts, or some of them, are unwelcome they are spam.
Don't do this. It will harm your reputation, it will harm your account.
Easy tiger.

Several Android and iOS updates
Hey Plussers, I have a few mobile app updates to let you know about which are coming over the next few days, I hope you enjoy them:
Delete, report, block with the option to delete recent comments will be arriving on Android and iOS. This is the mobile version of the web feature we announced a while back: plus.google.com/+LeoDeegan/posts/W41tDQy1gj1
Ban community member post option will be arriving on iOS. This feature is already on Android and Web.
Prioritized plus-mention suggestions will be arriving on Android. This feature prioritizes post owners and commenters in the plus-mention auto-complete suggestion list.This feature is already on iOS and Web. In addition, we will be improving the overall auto-complete suggestions in general on all three client platforms.
White top navigation bar (you may have already noticed) is rolled out to Android, replacing the red bar, which matches iOS and Web.
In addition, we're continuing to investigate and improve memory and performance of the new Android app that we recently launched (plus.google.com/+LeoDeegan/posts/JyiKjbArhrH).
Cheers, and, incidentally, I'm not actually blocking Steven, he's a teammate and one of the engineers that helped build these features ;)

Nice tips for Community mods, thanks for the share +Peggy K and the post +Robert Wallis

Quickly deal with spam in your +Google+ community ...
Use the Remove, Report and Ban option.
You can additionally use the checkbox to remove additional content by that account from the your community.
Note: as a community moderator you have various "Join options" which which allow you to set barriers to prevent spam from getting through to your community in the first place if you wish. Under those circumstances this kind of spam would never have got through in the first place.
____________________________________________________________
A note to spammers.
Stop. ..... No really, what are you trying to achieve?
Spamming is a short-term strategy and a battle in which you will loose any ground you may have perceived to temporarily have gained. If you do this in multiple communities you will be banned, you will be blocked and that will lead to action being taken on your account. It's a dumb strategy.
____________________________________________________________
A note to over-sharers.
Stop. .... No really, stop and take a breath then think from a perspective that isn't yours.
If you are sharing that "fantastic latest blog post" into multiple communities and believe the community moderators won't see it as spam, the you are deluding yourself.
Spam is defined by the community owner and moderators not by you.
Take a look at any community rules for each community and share what the community wants, not what you want them to see.

Circle streams missing?
Circle Streams in GooglePlus
Not sure why but I noticed that an update had removed circle streams for me in the mobile App.
If you are missing them and want them shown just hop into settings and flip the switch to show them on your device.

2017 in Perspective
Happy New Year, Google+! It’s been quite the year since New Google+ began its maiden voyage. Time for a “blast to the past” with an overview of what happened in 2017!
We started off the year and officially turned down Classic Google+, and New Google+ became the only platform we supported. This big step was only the beginning in fully committing to developing dedicated Google+ features.
We also joined GSuite, and announced at Google Cloud Next that we were increasing our focus on developing an enterprise version of Google+ for GSuite customers. So we started working on this exciting endeavor alongside consumer Google+!
We also introduced Discover, a new feature that helps you learn about different topics and cater them towards your specific interests. A lot of this year was also spent on quality of life improvements, particularly features focusing on profiles, communities, search improvements, and tools to help you fight spam.
Speaking of features, here are the features we released to you last year:
• Responsive design
• ‘Your Influence’ profile metrics
• Chronological hashtags
• Notifications improvements (unbundling +1 notifications, fixing actor-action mismatches, ‘Load More’ button on the One Google Bar, improved email notifications)
• 360° Photos
• Member Activity View in communities
• Discover and Topics streams
• Improved Google+ Search
• Additional community stream sorting
• Comment preview box
• Bulk Ask-to-Join moderation for communities
• Enhanced the photos lightbox by including the social sidebar
• ‘Remove, Report, & Ban’ for communities
• New profile cards for the Web client
• ‘Open in a New Tab’ & hovercards for the Notifications page
• Communities Insights metrics
• Google+ Search operators
• Bulk moderation of posts for communities
• ‘Delete, Report, & Block’ comments in your profile posts
Overall, we had quite an eventful year, with more feature developments to come in 2018!

Want to know what it takes?
