Advice on work flow for new member welcome messages

@tobiaseigen wrote:

I am having welcome messages (and other messages too) sent via SSO, from WordPress. These I want to be sent from a standard user account but have staff follow up on.

However, as I have read elsewhere...

Continuing the discussion from Impersonation and reading private messages:

I understand why this decision was made and agree with it, but it is interfering with this planned workflow. I do not want to give full admin access to the staff who'd be doing the replying. I'd be grateful for advice on how to fix this.

Some thoughts I've already come up with:

  1. have all PMs automagically flagged for attention by moderators so they can see them
  2. have the relevant staff invited to the PM automatically so they can follow up
  3. allow staff to log in as the standard user to reply, and invite themselves for follow-up.

Perhaps #1 is most attractive - though I don't want to necessarily burden all staff with these flag notifications. It would be able to limit this to those staff responsible for managing members based on group or something.

Hi,

Via admin - I am unable to manually set a user title. Whenever I try to save the edit, it doesn't confirm and apply.

Topic unsubscribe via email on mobile + clicking twice

I love the new feature to be able to easily unsubscribe from a topic in emails - thanks! For instance on Meta here I subscribe to certain categories and this allows me to quickly stop seeing emails for topics I don't care for.

That being said two things I noticed:

Button on mobile

See button misplacement on mobile:

VS correctly on desktop:

Tapping the link twice

In this situation my topic starts with a Watching status. Then when I follow the link it downgrades it to Normal. If I follow the link again (from the same email), it downgrades it further to Muted. I'm sure this is because if someone receives a notification from a topic they had listed as Normal but then wants less notifications, following the link should reduce it down to Muted. However if that is the case, I think the verbiage in the email notification would be better suited to say something more along the lines of "To reduce the number of notifications about this particular topic, click here" - since it's actually just lowering the level of notifications, not completely stopping them.

Hi,

A fix was released recently in regards to user titles not being able to be saved... well now, the button acts as if the title was applied - but the titles are not actually applied.

Please help?

Since the latest revision update, I am unable to view ANY forum section on mobile. My other members are reporting the same issue.

Mods can create polls even if polls are disabled, but the poll doesn't work

@AndyCoates wrote:

Hi,

We disabled users from posting polls via settings, but it seems admin/moderator can still make polls. Problem is once the poll/topic is created, the actual buttons aren't clickable so the poll is visible but not usable.

The idea was we didn't want users posting polls, but did want to allow staff - so it seemed like a great way of achieving that, except for the fact it didn't work frowning

Would be good if we could restrict poll creation to a certain trust level.

That subdomain loads my Discourse forum but I have no idea what that domain is to begin with. How can I prevent this from happening in the future?

Broken „Pin Globally” feature?

@iamntz wrote:

I just noticed that it's not quite possible to pin topics globally anymore. I mean the option is there, but it a bit disabled:

As a workaround, after I selected the date, i removed disabled attribute via dev tools, but i think it's not the best way of doing this, no? smile

Edit: i encounter this problem on two instances, one with a bunch of plugins, the other one vanilla. On both instances I'm up to date.

Move only part of a reply (and some other entire replies) to a new topic

@meglio wrote:

Not sure if there might be a lof of need for such a feature.

Quite often, in our forum people reply to a previous message in a topic and raise a new topic in the next paragraph of the same reply.

Actually, that's us who teach users not to write multiple replies but rather use "quote reply" and put everything in a single reply.

Now, if I want to keep one piece of the message in its topic and move another piece of the message (and some of the following replies) in a separate topic, how do I do it - is it possible and if not, is it a planned feature?

Mathjax - still viable?

Continuing the discussion from MathJax Plugin (supports math notation using LaTeX):

Is MathJax still in active development?

I enabled it on our installation a week ago, 3 bug reports were subsequently submitted to github, and as a result of the issue with the 3rd bug, MathJax had to be disabled since it was rather disruptive and we were getting no feedback: neither the bug reports, nor an email direct to the developer at the email address on github, have had any replies.

Photo-hosting gets to the topic's "popular links" even though all photos are downloaded locally as by Discourse settings

Consider this topic:

Among popular links, it lists radikali.ru, which is a photohosting:

In the topic, there are no links at all.

I suppose the links were for the photos to the photo-hosting. However, my Discourse instance is configured to download and store all images locally. So, not sure why that link is in the "top links" list. I do not want it and it makes no sense - is this a bug? If not, how do I remove the link from that list?
