I’m currently setting things up for my community and am doing quite a bit of copywriting (lots of first, second, third and fourth drafts… ). Some of the content is starting to look decent, but there are bits and pieces that still need to be finalised. For example, I’ll write a note “include screenshots for detailed steps” because I’m not going to do the screenshots now. Or “need to decide if we keep this paragraph here or move it to the top”.
Is there a feature/plugin/something in Discourse that can help me keep track of all these “copyediting notes” I’m leaving all over the place?
(And extra question: is there a way, when we’ll be ready to go live, to “purge” edit history for a topic and remove responses that were back-and-forth about the work in progress cleanly?)
I was under the impression that when you removed replies it remained visible that a reply was there at some point and had been removed. Not the case?
Thanks for your responses! Bookmarking is an idea but I think I maybe also just need to highlight the places in the topics where the notes are to make them visible at a glance. Some of the topics (documents) are longish…
Only admin and moderators can see that posts were deleted
But I think you refer to the “(This post was deleted …])” you sometimes see, those posts, deleted by their author, are removed after 24h (can be changed in settings).
Do you want those highlights public or private? If public, you can use <mark></mark>.
If private, you can use a [wrap] that will highlight text only for admins/moderators/yourself with a bit of CSS, but that might not be what you’re looking for.
