Rik Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I've a suggestion for a new feature for the IPB forum. Sometimes I've to make a topic and have to set it invisible, because other members of the forum doesn't have to see it (yet). But now you've to post this topic (or post) and after posting you have to make it invisible. Wouldn't it be better if the option "Make invisible" is added to the "After posting"-function? You can now lock, pin and by posts even move the topic, but I would like to see I can make it invisible directly after posting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparc Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Couldn't you just post the topic in a staff forum and move it when needed? just a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rik Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Couldn't you just post the topic in a staff forum and move it when needed? You're right, but there are some forums for forum-related projects with guest-moderators (so moderators who are not in the moderatorgroup or any other crew-group) and they have no access to any crew forum. They for example often discuss in invisible topics in the projectforum and it would be easier for them when they don't have to post a topic with "reserved", make it invisible and then edit the post with the real post.

Pintac Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I've seen a mod recently for "Show Post AT Defined Time". Similar to what you would want to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCWT Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 I agree, this would come in handly and it doesn't really add bloat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
