How is archiving supposed to work when something is in multiple groups? Should the archive button (in a pots) archive it everywhere or only in 1 group or only in the groups that the user has access to? If the last, would it make sense to have a dropdown beneath archive to say where it should archive/move back? We current get inconsistent behavior when [@support](https://meta.discourse.org/groups/support) (Which doesn’t have access to [@sales](https://meta.discourse.org/groups/sales)) archives a post. It will show a “Move back to inbox” button in the post, but still shows in [@sales](https://meta.discourse.org/groups/sales). --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/archiving-posts/84564)._
