I guess that will do, was a little mad when I flagged a topic and the OP edited their post just for the sake of unhiding it without changing a thing so sorry if I was sounding a big angry. Eventually the topic got taken down though. Side question: does unhiding on edit also clear the flags? We don’t have anyone yet my forum is still being set up and i cant experiment at the moment.
