luceos Private discussions show up on the frontpage for the recipients only. Aka this works as you describe. Or something is off (bug?).
Yeah. I acknowledge it shows up for recipients only who can then click on the topic and view the whole thread. I don't have problems hiding private discussions but in a situation where a member puts a whole thread into private discussion and making it inaccessible to other members who have contributed before needs attention.
There are 2 ways to make a discussion private; 1. by starting a new discussion and selecting recipients, 2. by selecting recipients inside an active thread.
I would prefer when you select option 2, the topic should still be displayed in front page and a new private discussion created for the selected recipients which can then be hidden. I noticed that when I select recipients from an already active thread. The whole discussion gets hidden irrespective how many comments are already there. I get surprised when a thread I have been following suddenly disappears because someone added recipients to it.
I hope you understand my observation
luceos Adding some kind of dashboard tab with statistics should be fine though, is that something you'd like?
Yes. That would be perfect!
Also I noticed that if you add only Member group to recipient, the private discussion disappears completely and is accessible to no one. Why is that? I suppose regular members are in the "Members Group" by default. So If I select recipient tag as Members Only regular members would have access to the private discussion. Maybe I am missing something though ?
