These files are not Jinja2 templates, so there's no reason that they needed to be inside `templates/zerver`. Moving them to the top level reflects their importance and also makes it feel nicer to work on editing the help center content, without it being unnecessary buried deep in the codebase.

# Mute a user
|
|
|
|
!!! tip ""
|
|
|
|
This feature mutes a user from your personal perspective, and does not
|
|
automatically notify anyone.
|
|
|
|
You can mute any user you do not wish to interact with. Muting someone will
|
|
have the following effects:
|
|
|
|
* All messages sent by a muted user will automatically be [marked as
|
|
read](/help/marking-messages-as-read) for you, and will never
|
|
generate any desktop, email, or mobile push notifications.
|
|
|
|
* All messages sent by muted users, including the name, profile
|
|
picture, and message content, are hidden behind a **Click here to
|
|
reveal** banner. A revealed message can later be [re-hidden](/help/mute-a-user#re-hide-a-message-that-has-been-revealed).
|
|
|
|
* Muted users are hidden from [**Private
|
|
messages**](/help/private-messages) in the left sidebar and the list
|
|
of users in the right sidebar. Private messages between you and a
|
|
muted user are excluded from all views, including search, unless you
|
|
[explicitly search](/help/search-for-messages) for `pm-with:<that
|
|
user>`.
|
|
|
|
* Muted users have their name displayed as "Muted user" for [emoji
|
|
reactions][view-emoji-reactions], [polls](/help/create-a-poll), and
|
|
when displaying the recipients of group private messages.
|
|
|
|
* Muted users are excluded from the autocomplete for composing a
|
|
private message or [mentioning a user](/help/mention-a-user-or-group).
|
|
|
|
* Muted users are excluded from [read receipts](/help/read-receipts)
|
|
for all messages. Zulip never shares whether or not you have read
|
|
a message with a user you've muted.
|
|
|
|
* **Recent conversations** and other features that display avatars will
|
|
show a generic user symbol in place of a muted user's profile picture.
|
|
|
|
* To avoid interfering with administration tasks, stream and
|
|
organization settings display muted users' names and other details.
|
|
|
|
!!! tip ""
|
|
|
|
Muting someone does not affect their Zulip experience in any way.
