Overgrow reported that after upgrading to the latest Discourse core, links to deleted posts—previously accessible via the admin UI at https://meta.discourse.org/my/deleted-posts—no longer function. While the list of deleted posts still appears, clicking on individual posts no longer navigates to their original topics, where they would display as “hidden post.” pmusaraj asked for clarification on where the issue occurred, and Overgrow confirmed it was in the admin user profile section. keegan identified the regression as likely caused by upgrading the user stream to a new PostList component in this PR and committed to fixing it. The issue was later resolved with this commit, as confirmed by keegan.
I’ve noticed that links to deleted posts are not available anymore after upgrading to latest core.
Previously it was possible to click from each deleted post into the relevant topic. But it seems like the link disappeared (and only link to a category remained).
Admins (staff) see the link in the user profile on the top in the black strip. (There is a summary with flags, posts and suspensions)
When you click the link you see the list of posts but it’s different from what you can see in the activity tab. Previously it was pretty much similar and you could click from each post into the relevant topic where you would see “hidden post” in the topic view.
Ah this may have become broken with my upgrading the user stream to a new PostList component. I will take a look at fixing this. Thanks for identifying the issue
