Ocean West Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 How do others setup their permissions for general members? Do you allow users to hide or delete content? Looking there is topics but not replies ( they are one in the same ) There doesn't seem to be a restriction with regard timeout can't delete after a period of time. or is this governed by the EDIT time out? Can a user delete a topic if there are replies? Can user hide a topic if there are replies? If a user wrote something then decided to remove it in my mind if there was no replies then it could be deleted and seen in the deleted content area Is there a prune for hidden content for XX days old?

opentype Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 I only allow VIP members to hide their posts, which tend to be trusted long-term members. For regular members, there would always be too much misuse of the feature. (Same goes for editing posts forever.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean West Posted July 18, 2020 Author Share Posted July 18, 2020 thanks - yea definitely have a timeout on editing. Nothing worse than a disgruntled person and wants to take there ball and go home, leaving the site Swiss cheese. There is not enough fidelity in current settings that I feel comfortable allowing unfettered use. The thing hate most is seeing pink content - why is it pink who made it pink, should I delete it - makes it hard to enjoy your own site when you end up putting on your admin hat. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
