I’m wondering if any of the mailing list crowd have played around with the updated group PMs.
I’m thinking of using a category for inter-group communication and using the group PM to allow non-group users to contact them. (I thought of doing it the other way around, but it wouldn’t make sense in my case. Non-group users might not want their messages publicly viewable.)
I don’t know if group PMs are covered by Sam’s recent changes to the watching feature: Watching and tracking implementation for tags and categories
In any case, if they’re not now, I assume they would be eventually.
Can someone suggest how to programatically change the watch state for group PMs?
I’m looking for the group PM equivalent for this: https://github.com/amical/discourse-watch-category/blob/master/plugin.rb#L37-L38
