I just created a draft and in order to change its ownership to our official account I’ve posted into a restricted category. Then changed ownership and moved to a public category but notification sent have my name on it.
AI-generated summary
The discussion revolves around an issue where notifications for shared drafts with changed ownership are sent incorrectly. Anatolia reported that when they changed the ownership of a draft and moved it to a public category, the notification sent still showed their name as the owner.
Anatolia explained that they expected the notification to show the latest owner’s name. Flashio chimed in, mentioning that this is a known bug that causes issues with the “telegram notification plugin”. The bug sends notifications to all users watching a category when the topic creator makes changes, directing them to the first post of the topic.
Flashio linked to a related discussion on the meta Discourse forum and requested a fix. Anatolia reported that the issue occurred again, with some users receiving notifications with the creator’s name, while they received the correct notification. Flashio asked if the issue would be fixed in the near future.
That is probably cause your account edited it. What is the exact repro of the issue and what is your expected behavior?

I’ve edited its content and ownership before shared publicly. Then I edited the category to move new category. I thought it would sent notification with the name of latest owner of the topic. This was what I expected.

This bug was also posted by me in different exposition.
The point is: when topic creator changes something in the topic (category, tag, etc.) - ALL users that “watching” this category or this topic - they all will receive a notification. After user will press on notification - he will be redirected to the first post of that topic.
This causes a problem when you using “telegram notification plugin”. All users will receive first message of the topic again after something changed in it.
I’m begging you to fix that.
This is happened again. If I create a shared draft then change its owner and share it into a public category, it’s sending a notification with the name of creator of post instead of latest owner.
Also interestingly I’ve got the notification correct but other users reported they receive different notification.
Was it fixed or will it be fixed in near future?
