List of guests

[Awe47]

Hi, our forum has started showing private email addresses of our guests in old posts (2015-2017). Can this be somehow avoided or can I get a list of these guests. We use SMF version 2.0.18.

First, upgrade to 2.0.19 if you can. (Think about upgrading to 2.1.2 also.)

I just want to make sure we understand what you want. You want the email addresses from those old posts not to show or you want a list of those guests who posted them, correct?

Are these posts important or would it just be easier to delete them?

Do you mean to see all the posts made by guests?

When a post is made, the email address of the post is also recorded (so that if you allow guests to post, which used to be a thing in the world, they could leave an email address to be contacted on)

If I remember correctly the email is only shown to moderators and admins.
