Could you please put in an edit button so we can edit our posts to fix spelling mistakes and any other errors we see after the post has been submitted. I don't think there already is one, but if there is could someone point it out to me.

Also a small suggestion could we have more posts per page. I think currently we can see 10 replies to a topic per page could you make it at least 15 or 20.
Thanks

There currently is an edit button on the bottom part of the message. You have 30 minutes to edit any post you make.

I can do the "longer threads"

i think you should make it so we can edit our posts anytime!

I changed it to 120 minutes. That's 2 hours.

Colesmom, Once upon a time, there was a long term member that went and got mad and edited all his posts to absolutely nothing. Kinda wrecks the board. So 2 hours is plenty of time.

2 hours is good for us, now I will need to find that edit button.

lll111 · 04-06-2007, 02:33 PM

Oh I see it now. I wonder why I couldn't see it when I needed it?

lll111 · 04-07-2007, 03:01 AM

I just noticed that if we post a new topic, then we can't edit that post. Is this intentional?

Not sure if I understand - can you explain further?

lll111 · 04-07-2007, 12:07 PM

If I start a new topic, so I am the opening post, there is no edit button available after I submit that, unlike when I reply to someones topic, or even my own, after that there is an edit button. I hope that is clearer, if not I will try and explain it better.

Well if I understand you....after you sumitthe post..go to new posts..you will see your post there. Click on it and then you should see the edit button.

Hope this helped?

lll111 · 04-07-2007, 02:33 PM

I will try that and let you know if it works.

lll111 · 04-08-2007, 03:20 PM

Now I see the edit button when making a new post. Thanks everyone for your replies.
