@ganncamp  
I’ve fixed the immediate issue. There’s one caveat though. Currently the Discourse backend only supports staff users to be able to switch a post’s `post_type` so I have made the 👁 toggle icon to to appear if a user is in `whispers_allowed_groups` and also a staff member. Do let us know your thoughts on this.
