We just upgraded to 2.8.0 and TL4’s can’t undelete their own posts. I mean, they can as long they don’t refresh the page: once they do, their (deleted) post no longer shows on the topic and it is not behind a “view hidden posts”. Staff can still see the deleted posts (within the 24h), just not the post author. This seems to happen only with TL4 as far as I tell, but I only tested versus a TL2. Not sure if relevant, but I reported this same issue last year when we upgraded to 2.7.0 and [a fix was done](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/13364). But, we never got around testing that specific bit as it wasn’t back-ported and the original (security) report had been about another issue (also related with TL4’s) that was addressed [on 2.7.5](https://meta.discourse.org/t/2-7-5-security-release/196428), so we only tested that part. Anyhow, in short, TL4’s can’t undelete their own posts on latest stable. --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/tl4-cant-undelete-their-own-posts/217913)._
