Full Version: [F] Unapproved post moved, later approved, link remains unapproved [R]
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
If an unapproved post is moved, then the link is also unapproved. If later, the post is approved, then the link remains unapproved, and the hyperlink in Mod CP to the link leads to a "this thread does not exist" page.

This means forum staff have to manually track down each link that points to the previously unapproved post and manually approve it. the term "link" implies that they should mirror the state of the thread they link to.

Can you please describe this in more detail. Are you talking about splitting posts?
No, it is about the redirect function.

-Unapprove a thread
-move the thread and leave a redirect
-now both "threads" are still unapproved
-Approve the main thread
-now the redirect is still unapproved

And as another note, the link on the modcp to the unapproved thread now has an invalid url

Definitely Reproducible. This is probably happening because they've became two different entities, and the query only updates the main thread.

Reproducible.
Thank you for your bug report.

This bug has been fixed in our internal code repository. Please note that the problem will not be fixed here until these forums are updated.

Revision #4301

The forum counters of the forum with the redirect do not get updated. After approving the original post it's still shown as unapproved in the forum counters.

Isn't that issue a separate issue?
I would say it's an incomplete fix and not a new issue.

Can you make a new report anyway and provide more information? Right now I'm not exactly sure how to reproduce
