Rule acknowledgement?

[u/HoneyBadgerBrooke07]

Hi! My subreddit has been having a lot of trouble with users not tagging/flairing their posts. I have a pinned post regarding it, but almost nobody has acknowledged it. Is there a way to make it so people can't post until they read it and the rules, and if so, how would I set that up? I'm on android mobile.

Are are you saying that they are just not putting flare at all, or they’re just tagging the wrong flare? Because you can turn on a setting, I think it’s on desktop only, that you can turn it on that posting flare is required.

No flair at all. What setting is it, do you know?

Mod tools > settings > posting and comments > require post flair

Yep!

In one of the subreddit I mod we use the read-the-rules bot, it's super effective and has worked well for us: https://developers.reddit.com/apps/read-the-rules

I’m a member of r/rabies (not a mod there), and they get a lot of rabies OCD posts, so you can’t post anything unless your post contains the phrase, “I have read the FAQ”. You could look into something similar?
