Well that sucks, I wonder if this means other discourse instances might be hit with the same GDPR letters? There'll probably be someone who has (or will have) forked discourse to make these changes.
- uptown 8y agoHow does Discourse factor into this? From my read of this, it doesn't seem to be specific to the fact that he's using Discourse.
- technologia 8y agoI thought he was using Discourse for his forum? Its not like I'm taking a shot at Discourse, I was just saying that it might be worthwhile to tack on an export function that is user facing to mitigate the onslaught of requests. [edit]: @jcastro, I totally didn't realize that was already there, my bad.
- jcastro 8y agoNot sure what version this was added to but Discourse has an export button that individual users can use from their profile page.
- matwood 8y agoIt does not appear Discourse has any admin tools in place to deal with a GDPR request. A self-service user panel would be even better. There is an open question whether posts would need to be deleted are just anonymized from the user account. Safer to delete of course.
