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!
Brilliant component!
is this possible to just make it so it appears on staff posts?
Thank You @fzngagan
Well done!
I’ll take a look at this request soon.
p.s.
This is addressed now.
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.
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?
Ah I misread the original issue, it’s not about the general whisper functionality, gotcha! @fzngagan is already on the case it seems 
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. 
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.
It’s actually a pavilion repo
@Lhc_fl PR and I will review.
Do you want to add the pavilion tag?
Yeah let’s do that and I’ll discuss if @fzngagan wants to pass the Topic over.
@merefield Is there any movement on this? I think it may still be in limbo?
It’s waiting on a (presumably trivial) org decision. I chased today.
