The discussion revolves around the absence of a flag option for posts in categories enabled with the topic voting plugin. armingrudd reports that posts in these categories lack a flag option, making it impossible to report inappropriate content. NateDhaliwal clarifies that the topic voting plugin should not affect flagging and notes that flagging works in other categories like feature. Moin suggests checking if the affected topics share a common trait, such as a disabled flag setting, while chapoi asks if the issue persists.
Hi,
Is it possible to add “flag” option to posts in categories with “topic voting” option enabled?
The posts in these categories don’t have a flag option so users/moderators cannot report inappropriate ones.
I searched and couldn’t find any settings to add the flag option in these categories.
It shows only these options:
instead of these:
topic-voting or post-voting ? Those are 2 very different plugins.
Strangely, the Topic Voting plugin has no limitation by looking at the Contribute > Feature category.
Similarly, Post Voting doesn’t look like it blocks flags [1], on my own instance.
For topic posts and replies, not comments ↩︎
It’s topic voting. Where can I find the settings to enable/disable flag option for these topics?
Currently, the voting topics don’t have the flag option.
This is odd. I don’t think the plugin should affect this. If you take a look at the Contribute > Feature category, you can see that you can flag these topics.
Do you have any customizations like Theme Components that could be affecting this?
Do those topics have something else in common? Maybe they are all created by staff, and you disabled allow flagging staff.
@armingrudd Is this still an issue you have? Have you been able to verify Moin’s suggestion?
