Notification to flagger(s) when a flagged post is edited?

feature
8

Currently there is no additional copy. It uses the existing “edited” notification.
For example, @alice will receive the following notification when @bob edits a hidden post flagged by @alice.

There are a few conditions for you to receive that notification:

  • The flagged post must be hidden when the edit happens. So, if you are the only flagger and the post is never hidden, you won’t be notified about the edit.
  • The edit must cause the post to be unhidden. It won’t notify when the post stays hidden after the edit.
  • The author must edit the post themself. It won’t notify when the post is edited e.g. by staff.
