How to know who deleted the post?

[josef]

My forum is powered by NodeBB.
Is it possible to find out in a deleted post who deleted it? This information appears at the top of the deleted topic. But what if it was just one deleted post and not an entire topic?
If the user who wrote the post deleted it back, or it was one of the "global administrators" with the appropriate permission, I'd love to know.

This info should be available at ACP>Advanced>Events

I have asked for more events before, if you think of additional events do not hesitate to open a GH issue...

@crazycells Thanks! I did not know it
But it seems to me that it should be simpler ... no? Maybe within the editorial history of the post or something similar

hmm... I believe deleting and restoring do not count as editing of a post, so these actions will not change the edit history.

@crazycells is correct, deleting and restoring a post doesn't change the post content, so we don't count that as an edit.

@julian Maybe a new indicator to know this? So that inspectors can know this too, not just those who have access to ACP
