User Essentials [Paid] 4.5.8

[thunderclap82]

We have a particular user who likes to make questionable posts and then edit those posts later when he gets called out. Will this add-on put his edited posts into queue for admin/mod approval?

Why not set this individual user permissions to a different setting to prohibit editing after a time frame?

 

[thunderclap82]

Our forum has a work in progress section that people will update their original post weeks or months later, so the time limit isn't help in this situation.

I'm not saying for all users but for, and I quote "particular user"".

I don't think any of my add-ons will support this use case.

Try this?

@Xon , does this addon give users the additional permission to delete their own polls? Currently, the moderator permission manage any topic has to be enabled for the delete poll option to show up. I would like to know if this allows thread starters to delete their polls totally instead of just being able to edit the polls so they don't have to keep reaching out to the moderation team for assistance with poll deletion.

Thanks!

This add-on does add a "[UserEss] Delete poll in own thread" permission, and I haven't had anyone recently complain it is broken!

Oops, the released version is actually v4.5.5 not 2.5.5

Hi Xon, I've got a rogue phrase, running 4.5.5 of this addon and XF 2.3.4:

Not sure how that was managed as the phrase exists in source control, it just wasn't imported when I built the redistributable

Next version will fix this, I'm just working through some other work first before it can be released.

It seems when a thread title contains an emoji, the addon throws an error when trying to log an edit action:

Ensure you have $config['fullUnicode'] = true; in src/config.php and then run the CLI command:

Ok, I'll save that for an off-peak time after a backup is run. CLI says it's a time consuming processes and our database is huge. . Thanks!
