This has been bugging me for awhile, when a user creates a new thread (and probably with posts as well), given it needs a moderator, admin or whatever to approve it(more specifically an approval only section in your forum), that given user is unable to view its own thread/post, which on my point of view would generate new users and users that are unaware of it, to create yet another thread/post.
Since on my forums we do have sections that are approval only, and that has happened a few times already I decided to look at it, and by modifying the showthread.php file, more specifically adding this line:
After this line https://github.com/mybb/mybb/blob/f6e6ca...d.php#L746
I was able to introduce that feature, and its a rather small change and I would like to ask, if you guys can see any security issue or anything that would make that change not accepted and how can I request that this feature is implemented to mybb1.8/2.0?
Thanks.
