The message list in this table is exactly what the specified user will see in their views. So if they have deleted messages (references) then admin will not be able to see the deleted messages either.
| <%= @user.vendor ? "Buyer name" : "Vendor name" %> | New messages | Message count | Last sent/received | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| <%= conversation.otherparty.displayname %> | <%= conversation.unseen_cnt %> | <%= conversation.cnt %> | <%= conversation.newest_message_date.in_time_zone(admin_user.timezone).strftime('%F') %> | <%= link_to 'View', admin_show_conversation_path(@user, conversation.otherparty), class: 'btn btn-primary' %> |
To view messages where all references have been deleted, this list is every user ever sent to or received from. The list of usernames in the above table is a subset of users in this list.
