I guess I messed up when I started going down this topic query path because it looks like reviewables doesn’t even use those topic query functions so I cant apply a custom filter this way.
also, I am still a little confused about what the parameters of apply_custom_filters are. do results refer to a ruby hash of topics? and is topic_query just an instance of the class?
Moving forward I’m not sure if this is the correct way to do this but I will try to find out how I can overwrite the reviewables_controller#index function to remove topics from the reviewables list depending on the current user.
advice and suggestions here would be cool
