Hello! I'm currently in need of a Ruby developer capable of building two small plugins for the Discourse forum system.
First, Discourse currently does not have a mechanism (outside of archiving posts) from preventing non-staff users from deleting posts and topics. See post from Discourse meta discussing where this is not possible - https://meta.discourse.org/t/disabling-deletion-withdrawl-of-posts/143317
Plugin should disable/hide delete capabilities for any non-staff user.
Second, we need a plugin for translating relative times on the Discourse front page to absolute times (see the attachment). Currently, you cannot overwrite the absolute time. We'd prefer the absolute time to instead be translated into the actual hour/minute (in browser local time). For any time that is greater than 24 hours ago, we can use the default behavior of using the date.
I'm open to answer any follow up questions as needed.
