Archive Post - how to restore and locate

[Martyn Houghton]

We have enabled the experimental feature which allows the locking and archiving of work-space posts. experimental.feature.activityStream.enableChangePostStatus

If a post is archived, is it possible to un-archive it, if it was done in error?

Also how would you locate it as I presume it will not appear in the search?

Cheers

Hi @Martyn Houghton,

If you click on the archived post, it will open it and allow you to un-archive it.

Regarding search, it will still appear in the search results.

Thanks for quick clarification.  Does the archived post only appear for the owner who would be the one who currently has to be have archived it or does the marker for archived post appear for everyone?

Cheers

@Martyn Houghton, the archived post can be seen by anyone but, only the owner can un-archive it. The idea is that it will not remove the history of the post, but will make it cleaner if you have an unused post or created one by mistake. It will also prevent people from commenting more. Is like the Lock post, but hiding it too.

I am presuming that If a person workspace search returned an archived post they will be able to see its initial content in the Global Search results and then be able to open the whole post without it being un-archived?

That is correct @Martyn Houghton. But even without the search. Anyone (who has that workspace visibility) can still see the archived post just by clicking on it. Again, this is not changing a privacy for that post, it just makes it smaller so that it will not disturb when looking at the workspace.

Thank you for your patience, I got it straight in my head now.
