Toggle Whisper 👁

This theme component adds a post menu button for staff users to make a regular post a whisper or vice versa.

This is useful especially for forums where a lot of conversations happen in whisper and a staff user ends up posting something and later wants to hide or show the post to non-staff users.

Nice! I remember this debate a few years ago. I have been burned by this so many times. The official response is:

I am often scrambling to delete whispers before they get emailed out and too many people notice my mistake!

ondrej · 2021 年 3 月 2 日午後 2:48

Brilliant component!

is this possible to just make it so it appears on staff posts?

Thank You @fzngagan

Well done!

fzngagan · 2021 年 3 月 3 日午前 7:04

I’ll take a look at this request soon.

p.s.
This is addressed now.

j.jaffeux · 2021 年 3 月 3 日午前 7:44

Yes I think the same, it’s very easy to get wrong with whispers and this is one of the cases where simplicity has too be sacrified for peace of mind.

fzngagan · 2021 年 3 月 3 日午前 7:57

My question then is, does discourse behave differently in terms of email if the post is deleted vs when its post_type is changed?

We have this component installed, but the toggle no longer shows up.

Has it stopped working, or is it possible that we made some edit elsewhere (to our themes?) that inadvertently blocked it?

It’s definitely still working on meta.

What does your setting here say:

ganncamp · 2023 年 5 月 10 日午後 1:14

Whispers are allowed

chapoi · 2023 年 5 月 10 日午後 1:17

Ah I misread the original issue, it’s not about the general whisper functionality, gotcha! @fzngagan is already on the case it seems

          export default {
            name: "toggle-whispers",
            initialize() {
              withPluginApi("0.11.0", whisperInit);
            },
          };
          
          
const whisperInit = (api) => {
            const currentUser = api.getCurrentUser();
            const siteSettings = api._lookupContainer("site-settings:main");
            if (currentUser && currentUser.staff && siteSettings.enable_whispers) {
              api.attachWidgetAction("post-menu", "toggleWhisper", function () {
                const model = this.attrs;
                let newType = model.post_type === 1 ? 4 : 1;
          
          
      ajax(`/posts/${model.id}/post_type`, {
                  type: "PUT",
                  data: {
                    post_type: newType,
                  },
                }).catch(popupAjaxError);

Apparently this code is broken. siteSettings.enable_whispers has been modified to siteSettings.whisper_allowed_groups.

You can try my fork here:

Thanks @Lhc_fl! Unfortunately, I don’t think I can try your fork since we’re on a hosted instance. But I appreciate your quick investigation! Maybe that will speed up the official fix.

JammyDodger · 2023 年 5 月 10 日午後 2:48

You can have any theme component you like. It’s only plugins that need to be official (or vetted)

However, I think @fzngagan will want to fix this one up, so if you can wait it may be better in this case.

merefield · 2023 年 5 月 10 日午後 2:48

It’s actually a pavilion repo

@Lhc_fl PR and I will review.

JammyDodger · 2023 年 5 月 10 日午後 2:51

Do you want to add the pavilion tag?

Lhc_fl · 2023 年 5 月 10 日午後 2:57

merefield · 2023 年 5 月 10 日午後 2:58

Yeah let’s do that and I’ll discuss if @fzngagan wants to pass the Topic over.

JammyDodger · 2023 年 5 月 31 日午前 9:19

@merefield Is there any movement on this? I think it may still be in limbo?

merefield · 2023 年 5 月 31 日午前 9:20

It’s waiting on a (presumably trivial) org decision. I chased today.
