Posted September 4, 20222 yr Initially I thought that this was a bug when hiding, unhiding and hiding again, but it appears that the staff note for hiding a topic are not shown on the first post like how edit notes are. The white text is what could be displayed to moderators. Right now the only option to find why a topic was hidden is hovering over the eye icon I forgot to add that these actions are also not added to the moderation logs, so that would be missing too.
September 5, 20222 yr Community Expert Please check this on a default unaltered theme with all 3rd party items disabled. Both of those things happen on the default platform already.

Hope these help Hide topic (no replies) Hide reply (reason shown) Hide topic with replies (only the previously hidden reply reason is shown inline).
September 7, 20222 yr Community Expert Solution Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention! I can confirm this should be further reviewed and I have logged an internal bug report for our development team to investigate and address as necessary, in a future maintenance release.
September 30, 20222 yr Community Expert This has been taken a look at by our developers, and confirmed as working as intended. These are 2 different items there. One is the hiding of topics and the other hiding of individual posts.

Can you let me know what magic you use to display the reason on Mobile, or why the action isn't logged in Moderator history please?
October 24, 20222 yr Community Expert Could you let me know if this was done on the latest release of the platform. While I cannot see the reason (its not show on mobile at present), it is logged in moderation history.

October 25, 20222 yr Community Expert Sorry, what I mean is was that hidden before upgrading to that version? If not, I would need a link so we can take a look for you
October 26, 20222 yr Author Yes it was always hidden and moderators have complained about it.. And then I had the time to report and follow up on it. Normally I will just hack it in myself, but this seems like more of a bug and an overlooked thing that should be present to assist moderation.
October 26, 20222 yr Community Expert This being the case, its very likely you are seeing a bug from a previous release. Please check this on an item that was hidden after you upgraded
