I have created this PR for resolving the editing of a story, as discussed here .

This is a great work, the only thing is that we don't want to allow users to delete a story. We made this decision in the past to consider that stories may have information from other users supporting a request (screenshots, votes, additional information, etc), so only an admin should be able to delete a story either because it is inappropriate or invalid. But a user shouldn't have this option.

What we could do, is that a user reports a story to be deleted and that it triggers on the admin to be reviewed.

What do you think @kailash360 ? Could you change the implementation to go in this direction instead?

Sure, we can replace the Delete feature, with a Report feature. The user who created that story will get an option - Request to Unpublish it, while other users will see a Report option. The functionality of both of them will remain the same.

I have thought of the following approach to this:

• We can add a separate User-Story-Report model which will contain the username of the person who reported a story, the reason it was reported for, and the link to the story. The admin can visit this User-Story Report collection to see all the reports and take action accordingly by clicking on the link to that story. If the report was not strong enough, the admin can delete the report itself as well.

Kindly suggest if there is any other approach, or if I should start implementing this approach.

Report feature sounds good to me.

@kailash360 after the implementation of the Reporting model on Strapi, have you followed up to create a Report feature on the front-end?

[cyntss]

We've decided that we will only use Reports, as opposed to delete, since it goes against the use cases of the application to let users delete a story

@cyntss
As of now, I have developed the design of the frontend. Link to the design

We can close this PR, and I'll open another one that will add the Report modal displayed above.
