Trouble editing my posts - Aquarium Advice

ntswift · 11-21-2006, 07:57 PM

For some reason on some of my posts there isnt an edit button. I was wondering if maybe there was a setting that I accidently changed or what was going on? Thanks for the help!

I don't think it's something that you can accidentally change. The admins of the site determine the editing capability of a particular forum. There are only a few forums that do not have the editing (you can edit your own post) capability turned on, and I think the Classifieds forum is one of them. Which forum were you in?

What forum were you in? You can't edit in some forums.

Specific forums like the Classifieds forum do not permit editing. This is how its been setup for years now. We have our reasons to permit it on most forums and to restrict it on others.

...so if it wasn't the classifieds or the barter/trade forum, something else is amiss.

Yes it was on the classifieds. I thought it was on another post but I went back and it wasnt. How do I post pictures on the classifieds forum or can I?
