The ability to see a post’s edit history is great for ensuring credibility, as defined in the Muut manifesto. However, if a user has mistakenly included sensitive data (real names, accounts, passwords etc.) in a post and an admin intervened to edit it, can something be done so that the sensitive data isn’t visible in the post history? (all I could find was this, but that was a bug)

You can also hide revisions of the edit history by opening the edit history and clicking the hide revision button (hint it is the trash can). Then only staff/admins can see that revision.

There is a workaround that Admins can do: Edit → Copy the post content Delete the post Create a new post omitting the data then change its owner to the original owner.

Seriously? That’s the first time I heard of this feature! :open_mouth:

Don’t feel bad, I also did not know about this feature until that post :stuck_out_tongue:

Here’s a link to a topic about this feature, which links to other topics previously: [imagem] Ability to hide or delete old revisions on selected posts Feature Continuing the discussion from Allow feature to hide edit history for mods: While this currently exists as a site setting, it’d be nice if it could be done selectively, just on posts that need this protection.

Ooh, neat! This will be useful.

How can I delete a revision from the history on my own edited posts? I don’t have the little pencil. I’m guessing that I don’t have the little pencil because it’s assumed that I know that I edited my post, so I don’t need to be informed of that fact. But is that the only way to access the revision history?

No you should have a pencil, unless you do it within the ninja edit window

Ah, maybe I’ve just been editing really fast without realizing it. Edit: yeah, I think that’s it. My brain goes too fast sometimes.
