A new feature allows staff to reply without bumping a topic using the “Toggle topic bump” option in the composer, with a visual anchor indicating bumping is disabled gerhard. Additionally, a “Reset Bump Date” action in the topic wrench menu updates the bump date to the last visible post, useful when posts are deleted or when a reply is initially made without bumping gerhard. Users appreciate the feature, noting its utility in managing spam and preventing old threads from being unnecessarily revived ChrisBeach, BenLeong. However, codinghorror suggests improving the UI by using the anchor instead of localized text, and omarfilip notes a bug where resetting the bump date doesn’t prevent email notifications.
Another new feature is the “Reset Bump Date” action in topic wrench menu.
It changes the topic’s bump date to the date of the last visible post in the topic.
That’s quite useful when the last post has been deleted, since deleting a post doesn’t reset the topic’s bump date. Or, you replied with the new “no bump” option and changed your mind…
That’s usually a good reminder; it means you need to deal with the topic, as it is a frequent target. If a topic gets a lot of spam I suggest closing it.
