Composer appears when the topic is closed

Hello., I was reading about the new release: Discourse 1.9.0.beta16 Release Notes (:clap:) and I tried to post a new reply there… and found something strange.

Try it now… if you press SHIFT + R to open the composer to enter a reply, the composer will appear even the topic is closed! :bug:

I’m not sure if this is a bug, or not.

Can you check?

I’ll need to set up a non-admin account to test. In the meantime, can you confirm if you’re able to post? What happens if you type a valid (>20 character reply) and try to post it?

I tried right now, and it says:

Something has gone wrong. Perhaps this topic was closed or deleted while you were looking at it?

Of course could not post it. :frowning:

So it’s prob fair to say that it’s not a bug then? Or would you expect the composer not to appear and the modal to come up at the point that you hit the shortcut?

コンポーザーは表示されるべきではありません。コンポーザーを起動するためのUX要素を無効化しており、キーボードショートカットも失敗するはずです。この問題は Contribute > UX にカテゴリを変更します。修正が必要ですが、投稿できないため優先度は低いです。

ちなみに、先ほどテストして再現を確認しました。

@SidV looks like this is a bigger issue than just closed topics. Going to close and link to Composer shortcut should be disabled if user isn't allowed to post.
