In the admin profile for a user, there is a field “Private Topics”.
This terminology is not aligned with the terminology that is used in the rest of the code.
I propose to rename it to “Personal Message Topics” or “PM Topics”

Hello all, I have a newly created possibly suspicious account with the following activity log. Can I list the indicated private topic somehow? My efforts to do so did not find a solution as yet. TIA.
Usually that private topic is the welcome PM sent after sign-up. I think “private topic” is a rather confusing term for “personal message”.
I don’t have and never had this plugin installed, but I see the same number on my test user.
I have never posted anything as the test user. But in the user’s inbox I can see the PM.

This is indeed not related to my “Private Topics” plugin but a core Discourse functionality with a confusing name.

“PM Topics” works for me. “Automated PM Topics” perhaps also?
No, this counter counts all PM topics. And the fact that it is 1 for this user comes from the fact that every new user gets one automated message.

It’s been this way for a very long time, guess we missed it! This will update to “Personal Messages”
