Deleted Posts Become New Topics...

[Teddy Rogers]

I just noticed if a member deletes a post they had created (or a moderator/admin deletes a post) to the trashcan it now becomes a new topic and gets listed in the Recently Added Topics window box thing on the index page.

I don't think it should be like this? Would be nice if it can be configured to ignore certain forums (such as the Trashcan) or just ignore split topics/unassigned topics...

Yes this isnt totally ideal but its only people with permissions for the forum that you use for the trashcan that can see this in the recently added topics part.

The trashcan is open to everyone so members can read why their post may have been trashed (if a moderator or admin did it).

If posts from private or "elevated" forums get trashed they are even more noticeable and accessible now...    :rolleyes:

Well you know what you need to do >_<

There are always around it but it would be nice to have an improved system rather than the alternative...
