    Ignore/Hidden post bug

    Hi there Mnstrgrl-

    I was just viewing a thread, in which a user I have on my ignore list posted. They specified their post as hidden. I have my site options to display all hidden posts, and this setting thus overrode my ignore-list, making the user's post fully visible.

    Does that make sense?

    Thanks!

    -Jim

    uhh.. I think you're mixing things up a little.

    From what I recall, if you have someone on your ignore list, they can't respond to your thread.
    I don't think it has anything to do with hidden posts..

    He never said it was his thread. He just said it was "a thread". And this does have something to do with hidden posts. If he has someone on ignore and they hide a post, he shouldn't be seeing the post if he has "View all hidden posts" enabled. The post shouldn't register or be visible to him. So the ignore should override the "View all hidden posts" option.

    Actually whatever you did made the post of a ignored members hidden post not even appear at all.
    Before it would just give you an optoin to view it if you wanted to. I put grlzero's account on ignore list and it doesnt show the post at all anymore. No option to view or anything.

    Edit: I can see the test again post though. But still not the first unless you deleted it.

    No option to view or anything.
    But's it's not supposed to. If it's ignored, then you shouldn't see the post, hidden or not. The issue was that the post was being shown when "View all Hidden posts" was selected. That would sort of defeat the point of having someone on ignore, wouldn't it?
