When you post something there are three options about the post, some hyperlink, edit and “three dots” for more options. When you click on more options some new three options appear, one of them being delete the post.
That delete option appears exactly where the three dots where. Maybe I am very clumsy, but could you please swap the position of the delete button with the flag one, or add a confirmation option to delete the post? I think being the delete button at the same position of the three dots leads to easy misclicks.
Happened to me actually, once, on a touchpad. It is just bad nonergonomic design from discourse. They shouldn’t have put anything replacing the 3 dots. And the solution is not to swich buttons because misclick will just happen with the other button.
But in the case of post deletion there is at least an easy undo. The post is just marked red/hidden, just unmark it.
P.s. Oh, it seems the undo button does not work anymore. Gives just an error.
No, we cannot. Or at least, not to the best of my knowledge.
The forum engine we use is called Discourse, and it is also being used by — among others — the KDE community. As far as I know, the position of the buttons is hard-coded, and we don’t have any control over that.
Sowwee!
I agree.
You could always ask a staff member to undelete the post. We don’t bite, you know? Well, okay, sometimes we do, but only when we’re really, really, really hungry and we haven’t been fed for days in a row.
I’m not sure whether all moderators can do it or whether only forum admins have that option, but I for one do see a button for restoring the post you’ve just deleted.
I’m pretty sure you could do it with Dark Reader or such extension, locally inside your browser.
Basically you override the forum CSS so you could tell to move this specific button at specific position. Don’t really have the time to dig into it more for your button, but I modify the forum myself to suit my desire all the time (OK, usually to “de-disgustinguify” (yeah I just made that up) the dark theme colors or to completely remove useless stuff like the recent “Powered by Discord” rainbow button at the bottom of the forum).
I just did a test - wrote a post which simply said that I’d delete it
and that I’d add to it with a description where the undelete feature is found.
I wrote the post, posted it, deleted it - there was the option to “undelete this post” (the symbol is a curved/circular arrow).
I used it - but it did nothing.
The just deleted post was not restored.
Gone for good.
The feature is there, but it doesn’t do what it promises to do.
… so I wrote this here post to report on my little experiment
I almost always write my posts in an external editor - just any simple text editor, not an office suite or something. xed in my case
Then I copy paste it here.
If something goes wrong - the original is still there in the text editor.
Or at least, not to the best of my knowledge.
