We recently upgraded our version, and when I went to the Admin pages for some routine moderating tasks I noticed that the
email addresses are missing!
These pages could benefit from further enhancement, but without moderators being able to see an even limited number of email addresses nor able to filter accounts by them, the ability to moderate for problem accounts is severely crippled.
Okay, when I re-enable that setting, it still wonât show email address on the Admin > Users Listing Pages. It shows in the Admin User Profile and the User Profile, but I canât do a bulk search on the User Listing pages anymore
What I donât know, is if that was intentional, after re-enabling the setting. We use that feature a LOT, as it is easy to identify multiple accounts, bots, etc by the patterns of their email addresses.
It still doesnât show on Admin > Users Listing Pages.
Is this an oversight or a deliberate change? If itâs the latter, weâll sort it ourselves but it would be good to know so that we donât waste time on it if youâre going to reinstate it (I notice that @cpradioâs post above mine was liked by someone outside of our community, so it looks like itâs not just us that are missing it).
what is the workflow again that requires this to be visible on the users page? I donât see the point of having it in there for my own purposes. When I need to contact users outside the forum I can always do that by exporting the user list which I do periodically anyway.
My localhost as eviltrout does.
But my SitePoint as a Moderator does not.
Perhaps your community is small enough and you are the only moderator?
Although having the capabilty on individual member Admin pages would be better than nothing, what is more devastating to being able to efficiently moderate is not having them on the Admin -> User âActiveâ and âNewâ pages.
The ability to Filter by Membername and Email address on those pages was a step in the right direction, but removing email addresses from them is crippling.

Does your user admin page not look like this?
[/quote] Yup, ours does.

But my SitePoint as a Moderator does not.
[/quote] Mine does so it must be admin, not mod.
I donât think that solves our issue though. Iâll wait on @codinghorror to confirm that it has gone for good on the userlist page before deciding how to proceed.
Looks like the ability for mods to see it has some recent support:
Edit: sorry, misunderstood the discussion is now focused on whether email addresses should be shown on the User List page⊠so you can search / filter by it, etc.
Weird one here. Iâve got an unapproved user that I canât show the email for⊠it has the âShowâ button, and âNot verifiedâ just above it. Clicking it generates a 404 when trying to âPUTâ to emails.json for the username. Works correctly on other users.
We are pretty close to latest⊠we are on a commit higher than beta6 at least (so can you elaborate on old bug?) As we used to be able to search by email address and it went away when the âmoderators_view_emailsâ was introduced
Happens on my Dev machine too, which is latest (when I tested it a few days ago)
