Thank you.

"You can only get categories as moderated and not individual topics."
But how can I do it? I don't see such possibilities in the Kunena Forum: Categories.

"How did you mark the topic as moderated?"
In my forum, any post has a "moderate" button.
Previously, as an administrator, I could see the "gray" topics and return them to the forum, but now for some reason I can't.

I am adding a Complete Configuration report, but I want to make an explanation to it.
The current version Joomla 5.3.0 and Kunena is 6.3.8, although the update list says "Kunena Forum
update.kunena.org/6.3/pkg_kunena.xml Site Parking 6.3.9 6.3.10", that is, 6.3.9 is supposedly installed and 6.3.10 is proposed.
However, when updating, the message Ungültiges Erweiterungsupdate is displayed and the version does not change.

Oh, that's what you meant. You can use this button to perform moderator actions such as deleting, moving, etc., but the topic will not be marked as moderated.
Have you already written another post as a test and then deleted it to see if the error still occurs?

"You can only get categories as moderated and not individual topics."
But how can I do it? I don't see such possibilities in the Kunena Forum: Categories.

If you open a category in the backend -> Category settings -> Review posts set to Yes, then all posts must be approved by a moderator. However, this only makes sense for categories with topics that need to be checked for accuracy before publication.

According to the configuration report, Kunena 6.3.8 is installed. It is likely that the update will not be allowed because your database does not meet the minimum requirements ( see here ).

I could see the "gray" topics

Just a guess: have you changed this setting in configuration - tab Security?

Yes, the setting is correct.
Hiis configuration report shows: modSeeDeleted = 0
0 = admins
1 = admins and mods
2 = nobody

When I click on the moderation button, two options appear - actually moderate and delete. In the first case, I can move the post or topic to another location, and deleting makes the post gray, that is, invisible to non-administrators. The problem occurs when the "deleted" (gray) post is the only one in the topic, or when all posts in the topic or the entire topic is "deleted" (gray). In these cases, as an admin, I cannot see it, and I can not return it to the forum,  if I wish.
Or do you mean something else?

If you open a category in the backend -> Category settings -> Review posts set to Yes, then all posts must be approved by a moderator. However, this only makes sense for categories with topics that need to be checked for accuracy before publication.

It's even embarrassing to write about it, since I've been using Kunena since its introduction, but I don't understand it. 
Firstly, I don't want to moderate all messages in any of the topics. I am interested in the (pre-existing) possibility to temporarily delete posts. 
That is, the option "Beiträge kontrollieren does not interest me". (I do not translate German inscriptions into English, so my or the automatic translation may not match the correct one.)
Secondly, there is a tab for categories called "Moderations Einstellungen für diese Kategorie". But for every Category there is "Für diese Kategorie sind keine Moderatoren eingetragen." Maybe that's the reason, because even the admin doesn't have the necessary rights? But there are no ways to add a user to the list of "Zu dieser Categorie eingetragene Moderatoren:". I didn't find it.

According to the configuration report, Kunena 6.3.8 is installed. It is likely that the update will not be allowed because your database does not meet the minimum requirements ( see here ).


It's very strange. It so happens that I run two websites in parallel in different languages, which I maintain exactly the same structures for. Both sites are hosted on the same hosting. I have Kunena 6.3.10 installed on the parallel site. The difference regarding the Kunena version is that I installed 6.3.10 on the parallel site before upgrading Joomla to 5.3, and on the one where the update problem occurred, I updated Joomla before Kunena. (By the way, a similar problem is currently being discussed in one of the neighboring topics).

Thanks

This is no longer relevant, as you don't want to check topics before publication, but a brief explanation nonetheless: A simple moderator can be assigned individual categories in which they are allowed to moderate.
It is therefore advisable to have a moderator in moderated categories, as otherwise the admin receives all mails and has to approve all posts. However, if there is an assigned moderator, only they will receive the mails when a post has been written and can check and approve them. If the admin has to do everything himself anyway, it doesn't matter if there is no moderator.

When I click on the moderation button, two options appear - actually moderate and delete. In the first case, I can move the post or topic to another location, and deleting makes the post gray, that is, invisible to non-administrators. The problem occurs when the "deleted" (gray) post is the only one in the topic, or when all posts in the topic or the entire topic is "deleted" (gray).

If all posts in a topic are deleted, the entire topic counts as deleted and is no longer displayed in Recent Topics. You can find the deleted topics via the index page if you know the category (see image below).

It is even easier if you create a new Kunena menu tab:
1. go to the Kunena Menu and click on New
2. select Kunena Menu Item Type = Recent Topics
3. select View = Deleted Topics
4. Parent item = Forum
5 Status = Published
5. access = Special or Super Admin
.
