I Lost "Edit" From My Posts
 

Yesterday I noticed I no longer had the option to EDIT any of my posts.

Selection on the bottom right include; QUOTE, Mulit-Quote, and Quick Reply. Has something changed on the server so I can't edit my posts anymore?

Somebody else was complaining of the same thing Elinor, I'll see if we can get an answer from the tech gurus at IB.

Thanks Norri


Actually I signed in on my laptop just now and I have my edit button back. Also Norri as I mentioned to you, I have my signature back as well. Must have something to do with my phone.


LnrB, are you posting thru your smart phone?

If you post from your phone using the Mobile One style, then it won't include your signature. Not sure why but this seems to happen with all VBulletin forums and the Lightweight/Mobile style.

But the edit button is still there.

No, Joyce, from my desktop through DSL.

Thank you, Norri,
The "EDIT" button is missing from my original post above, but it's still there in my answer to Joyce. It's almost like it a time thing. Like when the Server refreshes the button is gone.

Hi Elinor.......from the time you make a post and hit submit, there is a time delay in which you can still "edit" posts, this is around 30 mins I believe to allow for any corrections.

After that time you no longer have that function available and must ask a mod to make any changes for you if required.

Without going into too much detail, please believe me when I say there is good reason for this.

Thanks

Jim

OK, that explains it. Thank you, Jim.
I thought it must be a new thing, because I only noticed it today when I wanted to add some info to a post and couldn't.

So that means then, if I see someone's post in the last couple days that says it was edited, they either had to ask a Mod for permission or they did it within 30 minutes. It's all clear to me now.

I'll have to be careful now to get it right the first time, won't I.

Clue needed - it'll take ages to search through all your posts to find one with the mistake!

Graham :icon_lol:

I never use mobile theme for the sites , web is the better because it restricts some features and your inputs verifies this as well
Why light/mobile theme does that ? I dunno but my assumption is full web sites take too many spaces and your mobile phones are barely above 5-6 inches otherwise these should have been called something else lol
They just put useful info and signature is not as important as other stuffs

Thank you, Graham,
Clue follows:

It wasn't a Chrysler 707, there is no such transmission. It was a 727.

Mistake? What mistake? :icon_wink:

<smile> Thank you, Norri,
See reply to Graham above. It's only one number of 3, but still.......
