2.2.0 Release Note

June 7, 2019

We have added a new feature to AnswerHub called the Hidden Moderator Edit, also known as the Ghost Edit.

TL;DR

  • A new checkbox in the admin console under Control > Content Permissions Menu
  • New permission in the admin console in the Moderation Roles section
  • New Community UI changes to allow hidden moderator edits
  • Updates to the API PUT and GET requests available
  • Updates to the Analytics page to account for the hidden moderator edits

A new permission called "Hide moderator edit" under the Advanced Permissions "Moderation roles" section will grant moderators the opportunity to see the checkbox to hide their edits in the community UI. If your community will be heavily moderated, you may want to grant this new moderation permission to avoid having edited content bump up to the top of the content list, update the avatar and last action thread on list views due to the moderator's revisions. This feature is available for questions, articles, and ideas. A new checkbox in the admin console will allow the admin to either select or not select the checkbox; the admin selected checkbox will always have the community UI checkbox selected while not selecting the admin checkbox will leave the community UI checkbox unselected by default.
