Discourse doesn't send notifications after an unlisted topic is listed

I’ve given the initial bug report a run-through and it seems to be working as usual.

  • As test user (TL1), set a category to Watching First Post
  • As admin, create a new topic in that category and toggle it as ‘Unlisted’ before posting

  • A notification is sent out to the test user:

notification for new topic (unlisted)

The test user also receives notifications of Likes, Mentions and Replies for things while the topic was Unlisted as well:

notification from Unlisted

You wouldn’t normally get another notification on Listing/Unlisting, so that’s working as normal too - though it does now appear in the topic list with an Unread count:

now listed
now listed1373×173 13 KB

And notifications for everything now it’s listed work as well:

more notifications
more notifications1788×285 52.5 KB

I think everything is working as intended. :+1:

But, for those reasons, Unlisting a topic to create a draft isn’t the recommended way as it’s often noisier than you’d think. Hopefully you got on better with the Shared Drafts. :crossed_fingers:
