Option for scheduled replies

Hi all,

Would it be somehow possible to use “scheduled” replies, similar to how you can do this in Gmail?

We use the forum for support and sometimes it could be useful to delay a reply.

Is it technically possible to create a plugin for this perhaps?

It is easy to do currently with the Discourse API.

I’d like our moderators to be able to do this from the frontend though. Something like this:

Post it in a different category, one that nobody can see – such as the staff category that comes with Discourse by default – and then issue a topic timer via the admin wrench on the topic to publish it to a different category.

Hi Jeff,

Thanks, that’s something we can try for now. It still takes a couple of clicks to do this though. Is it technically possible to create a scheduled reply button like in my screenshot? If so, I know I can ask a developer to dive into it.

Is there any plans on going through with this for the newest version?

I have been looking into other ways to “get around” this, but in this case, I want to schedule a reply, not a whole topic. For now, is there a theme or plugin that is able to be developed (or an existing one) that can accomplish this? Is there a way that this could be integrated into the core build of Discourse?

Un pequeño recordatorio. Sería una característica muy útil para las personas que no son administradoras pero que a veces tienen un NDA hasta cierto momento, o que quieren ir revelando información poco a poco.

Alguien codificó esto. Nos está funcionando muy bien:

Obtienes un botón adicional:

Con la opción de retrasar la respuesta 24, 48 o 72 horas.

¡Disfruta!

Hola, ¿algún consejo sobre cómo instalar esto? Cuando intento agregarlo como tema desde un repositorio de GitHub, recibo este mensaje de error:

Un error ocurrió: Error de importación: about.json no existe o es inválido. ¿Está seguro de que este es un tema de Discourse?

Este es un plugin y no un tema o componente temático. Debes seguir Install plugins on a self-hosted site
