Conversation Essentials [Paid] 1.14.1

[Mr Lucky]

What does this mean please:



I can't see where you delete a message, or does it mean a time limit on leaving a message?

Ignore it. I was adding a feature that allowed you to delete messages but it caused major issues. I forgot to remove the permission. So basically, it does nothing.

One small issue (for me) is that when a message is copied into a thread/forum, you get an alert of a new post. That is OK, but if I copy a message from a member into e.g. a private admin forum, the admins of course get an alert that the member just "replied to a thread" they are not allowed to post in.

In one way this makes sense, but in another way it is very disconcerting to see an alert of a reply from a non-staff member in the staff forum.

It would be better if instead of "replied to a thread" the alert could make it clear that it was copied from a PC to avoid confusion.

That is extremely unlikely to change. It would go against a lot of how XenForo works by default. The thing is, these new posts are legit posts and therefore go through all the typical methods. They trigger alerts and emails for the people watching the nodes, they affect post count, they're posts. Assigning them a different/special alert would be extremely difficult, and quite frankly it'd be pretty odd as well.

I get where you're coming from but it's just not feasible to change it.

This is really good to know.

I'll have to test this but I thought that XF didn't generate alerts for threads that were inaccessible/not visible due to permissions. So if one created a thread from a convo in an area where one of the thread participants did not have permissions to view, wouldn't that block the alert from occurring?

Similarly, if one moved a thread from a public area to a private area and then replied to it, the alert & email wouldn't get generated would it?

 

[Daniel Hood]

I think you're misunderstanding who is getting the alert. The user who's post is being moved is not who I'm taking about. I'm talking about anyone watching a staff forum (like in @Mr Lucky's situation) and these conversation messages being moved into that area. That triggers alerts for the staff members watching, not the OP.

Your users will not see alerts for content that they cannot view.

 

[Floyd R Turbo]

Oh, I see that now. I didn't think that sounded right!! I have no problem with that as long as admins/mods know the addon is there, it shouldn't be any surprise (education)

 

[Mr Lucky]

it shouldn't be any surprise (education)

No it shouldn't, but I still remember from many years ago when I was moderating on vbulletin forum and an admin mistakenly gave a banned member access to the admin discussion. It just spooks me a bit when I see "xxx replied..." in a forum they shouldn't.

@Daniel Hood, is this error got something with your post ratings compatibility add-on?

[Daniel Hood]

It has to do with Conversation Essentials, the fact that PostRating is included is just a coincidence. Are you sure you have the latest files installed?

 

[Sunka]

Are you sure you have the latest files installed?

Yep, version included in convess v1.10.2

 

[Sunka]

@Daniel Hood any news about that error?
I get about 10 of that errors in ACP on a day base

 

[Daniel Hood]

I'll release a patch in a few hours. Sorry about that.

Daniel, is it possible to hide the Conversation Filter from the account page?

Thank you.

 

[Daniel Hood]

The link only shows if they have permission to use the filter system (permission "Can create conversation filters"). If you want to let them keep using the filter system but don't want the link to show, you'll have to manually remove it from the template "convess_account_wrapper_sidebar_filters".

Thank you, I missed this setting
