Currently there is a single setting for both of these options:
trust level 3 can edit others’ topic titles and tags
trust level 4 can edit others’ posts
It would be handy if these were separated into different settings.
For our case:
We want to enable trust level 3 editing topic titles and tags, since the changes that can be made there are limited. But currently we want to disable editing others’ posts for trust level 4.
In the past we’ve disabled the setting altogether if we want to limit editing posts by tl4. But it’s been handy to have people add tags to topics, so it’s not ideal to have to disable that for tl3.
Mainly our audience is a bit younger and so leaders from the community are a bit younger, and though the vast majority have been very trustworthy, there was a historical case where some misused their privileges. So we usually have been a bit more conservative with some abilities – we only re-enabled editing for tl4 & tl3 after the present group of leaders had been serving for a while.
We are planning to disable the editing ability for trust level 4 again as we are onboarding a new group of leaders. But it would be nice to still have the ability for tl3 to add tags on others’ topics (Our community usually does not edit others’ titles)
I am generally warm to adding this fidelity though I would prefer to just “de-trust level” these settings if we do a split and change them so they are group based.
Sure Tracey I am happy to put a pr-welcome on this, it should be a fairly straightforward change, that said, it does have security implications so it would need careful testing using unit tests and would go through a pretty rigorous review process.
