(Not sure if this should be posted in ux or feature, feel free to move it if it’s in the wrong place).
Currently there is no easy way for staff to see if a user is silenced, without going to the user in the admin page.
Unlike a suspension, which is shown on the user’s regular profile page/profile card when clicking on a username.
In my opinion something like this:
would be a nice addition (at least for staff members, maybe hide it for non-staff members(?)) to check if a user is silenced. Or, like the current Suspended message that appears when opening the User Card of that user, display it somewhere in the user card.
Personally I don’t see any reason why this wouldn’t be a good feature, but I’m sure there’s probably reasons why this could be an unwanted feature. In which case: I’d like to know what the downsides are
The main reason for this is some users get auto-silenced by the System user for typing too fast, if another staff member “rejects” that post that’s “awaiting approval” then the user gets permanently silenced without it being obvious in regular topics. So if someone replied, and later got silenced. At first sight you wouldn’t know they’re silenced and you probably get confused why the person isn’t replying if you ask them something.
Yeah we already have that, but some users were silenced before that plugin was added. So it won’t show up in there. It doesn’t necessarily need to be a flair, a message similar to the ‘this user is suspended’ message on their profile page / user card would also be helpful.
…Really? It doesn’t show on their profile page. Only in the admin user page? I just tested it and it doesn’t show anything on their user profile if you silence someone. Only suspensions will show a message.
Есть ли планы сделать статус «Заблокирован» видимым на странице профиля пользователя? Как администратор, я могу видеть этот статус во вкладке администрирования для каждого пользователя, но заблокированные пользователи жалуются, что не видят его нигде — ни причину блокировки, ни дату, когда статус вернётся в норму. Единственное, что они, по-видимому, получают, — это электронное письмо о том, что их временно отключили от возможности публиковать сообщения, но без каких-либо объяснений причин.
Это было бы очень полезным дополнением.
Что касается аватар-флейра, было бы здорово сделать его видимым опционально — либо только для сотрудников, либо для всех зарегистрированных пользователей.
