amdad @Toby I'm curious, are usernames (in mentions) from posts are stored in DB as they are written? Or as user ID's? Can we change usernames in future? If yes, did we loose proper mentions in messages?
Toby amdad Currently they're stored as they are written. Storing IDs introduces a whole lot of complexity... but it's probably worth it. Made an issue: https://github.com/flarum/core/issues/147
Fastidious amdad And while on this, what ID (or username) will show if the post being referred too is deleted, or, worse yet, if the OP has deleted its entire account? Provisions for that, Toby?
amdad In DB id's, but in editor (when add/edit) we should see usernames. It's better to recognize to who we address message, than just ID number. So It should convert it (usernameid) on fly when SAVE or GET content between DB & editor.
