Just discovered a new action in the “topic admin actions” behind the wrench icon button: “Reset Bump Date”. As I have no idea what this means, I got the idea that having a tooltip appear when hovering those actions would be nice. “This … to …”.
Sure, feel free to submit a pull request ![]()
Should I write “I have no idea what this does” in the tooltip label?

In forum parlance, bumping a thread means moving it to the top of that particular board, or in Discourse parlance, the top of the recent list. The bump date refers to the time that the post was last bumped, or rather, when it was last pushed to the top of the list/board.
Resetting that effectively puts it back in chronological order according to when the thread was originally created, rather than when the last reply was hit.
On another note: Wouldn’t adding tooltips that explain what each button in the wrench menu does mean that we’d also need localization/internationalization for each tooltip? Seems kinda crazy in terms of costs.
Well, we already do this in a bunch of places, so it’s no bigger cost than anything else.
Just added tooltips to the admin menu ![]()
Was only going to add it for “instant” actions but I think this is better for consistency as @nicatronTg pointed out. Feedback on the locales is welcome!
看来上面提到的 PR 并没有成功合并,不过随后有一个第二份 PR 被合并了
!
……但随后又被回退了
。
关于回退的原因,@codinghorror 是这样解释的:
我认为这个 PR 不应该被合并 @sam。这会引入大量额外的文案,需要翻译,而且其中大部分内容相比现有文字并没有太多价值……这些提示框几乎不会被看到,它们几乎没有任何作用。我投票支持回退这一变更。
@sam 则这样回应:
我暂时会回退……但其中一些提示框确实很有用。
- “归档”(archive)的作用是什么?将鼠标悬停在“归档”上即可了解。
- “重置置顶”(reset bump)的作用是什么?
- “取消列出”(unlisting)的作用是什么?
我认为问题在于这次变更的范围过于广泛。
就我自己而言,我正处于与 Discourse 的“蜜月期”,是一名新管理员,也在寻找这个功能。
确实,这些提示框需要翻译,而且很少会被看到,但我并不认为它们没有太大价值。
我的理由是:主题管理员操作往往具有后果——你可能会惹恼用户,可能会让内容消失,可能会触发邮件通知。因此,在点击这些操作之前,我觉得有必要增加一层安全保障。其中一些概念对我来说也是全新的。
我倾向于(建议?请求?)将这一功能(或类似功能)真正纳入产品中。我会将文案重点放在“解释操作后果(如果有的话),尤其是那些不可逆或会影响他人的操作;为新手管理员操作该菜单提供安全保障”这一逻辑上。
谢谢!
