I used to be able to edit posts, but now I can't. Is anyone else experiencing this? When I post something, there is an EDIT button there, where it always used to be. Clicking on it allows me to edit it, but when I try to save the changes, nothing happens. When I refresh the page, the edit button is no longer there. Something fishy is going on around here!

Well I certainly can't edit things, unless I'm losing my mind. I used to edit my posts all the time, so I know how to do it, and now there isn't even a button. I think OpaQue is doing something, because that comma in the title is gone too. It's weird that you can edit though.

Edit Testing...testing...

Well I made one edit above, and I now see the edit button in that post, but not in my first post. I also got an error message trying to edit it a second time.

Sorry, an error occurred. If you are unsure on how to use a feature, or don't know why you got this error message, try looking through the help files for more information.
The error returned was:

Sorry, you do not have permission to edit that message

Edit testing again.... looks like it will work.

Right now it's only letting me edit once, and then the second time I get the error. I tried it again to make sure and the same thing happened. Can you edit multiple times? I used to be able to, so something must have changed.

For me i seem to have short period where i can make an edit after i have created a post. If i neglect to do so then i miss the opportunity. (Its only been like that since yesterday for me)

Edit seems to be working fine, now.

When you experience forum glitch, just give it a moment or few minutes. It can be due to server updates or forum updates. It's also possible that it's due to database running slow and cannot keep up with incoming requests. It's like having the hour glass of waiting icon when you click too many things on your PC, or running too many things. :P

This topic is closed.

PS, maybe OpaQue was changing the shoutbox and that's when you experienced the problem. Shoutbox orders are in reverse, it seems.

This topic is reopen because it was reported to me that regular members cannot use EDIT feature.

I am not sure if OpaQue turned it off, for whatever the reason. Be advised that until I have some reply from OpaQue the missing EDIT instance has been reported and noted. Please, no more topics about it.

hmmm...
There is a possibility that he may have installed the Mod for IPB that disallows members to edit their posts after a time frame has passed? only thing I can think of after seeing the posts above.

EDIT-#1... if I do not edit this post again it's cuz I can't
EDIT-#2... hmmmmm worked for me


Merge these 2 posts if you will.
---
I could not edit a 3rd time.
