Apparently no way to react to a question
Describe the bug From the Reactions section of the Moderator Tools you can edit the setting for a specific reaction. Under "Limited to Post Type" you can select "Question". This results in the reaction not showing up in the available reactions on an individual answer (as intended). However, it also does not show a "react" button on an individual question, so there appears to be no way to use the reaction.
Has something changed since the Meta answer indicating that a reaction can be set up for questions?
To Reproduce
- As a moderator, click on "Moderator Tools" in the right hand panel of a Codidact page
- On the Moderator Dashboard page that this leads to, click on "Reactions"
- Click "edit" on one of the reaction types
- Under "Limited to Post Type" select "Question"
- Click "Save"
- Go to an individual question page
- Observe that there is no "react" option below the voting buttons of the question
Expected behavior If there is at least one reaction type that is limited to questions, then each question should have the option of adding a reaction.
I noticed that articles on the Meta blog have reactions, but Meta questions don't, and the reaction doesn't specify post types (nothing is selected for "limited to post type"). I then noticed that the definition of the Article post type (global definition) allows reactions while the definition of the Question post type does not. Definitions of post types are, as I said, global, not set per community.
I'm guessing that this setting on the global post type predates the ability to limit reactions to specific post types, and that we should reconcile these. I think we're going to need to get more background info from @ArtOfCode- .
