How do you edit a thread?

[SupremeGrandRuler]

Made a thread a week ago for a WC3 project and I need to update the OP but I can't figure how. ???

 

[Wolfe]

Yeah, I don't know why, but the Edit button has disappeared for a few of my posts. I've tried logging in again, restarting my browser, still doesn't work.

Edit: Oddly enough, it does appear on this post though.

 

[kdh.]

i got the same problem
EDIT:You can only like edit new post you make for now

 

[Vengeancekael]

Could you link your post?

 

[SupremeGrandRuler]

Could you link your post?

Yea I wanted to edit the OP of this thread:

[mckill2009]

Me too I have the same problem, oh well, attention Admins! pleaseeeee... ...

 

[Codric]

Me too I wonder why

 

[Luorax]

So apparently none of us can edit post. Thought only I had this issue (although I wasn't sure, a forum bug seems more possible)

 

[Cihparg]

No can edit posts, makes arranging games harder.

 

[Vengeancekael]

I've brought it up in Mod's Lobby, Ralle should respond soon!

 

[SupremeGrandRuler]

Any news?

 

[The Dark Wizard]

Any news?

Edit button should be back!

Ralle stated in the chat when he was here today that it was fixed. Please do let us know if you encounter any more problems.

[SupremeGrandRuler]

Thanks it works now!

 

[SupremeGrandRuler]

Problem is back.

 

[The Dark Wizard]

Problem is back.

Ill let Ralle know, thanks!

I'll post something here if I find any information. I think what happens is that you can't edit posts after X amount of time, try making a new post and then editing it quickly.

with skill

I also have this problem. I need to update my Spell Workshop, but I can't edit my post! Strangely enough, I can edit this post :/

 

[Dr Super Good]

1. Refresh your browser cache, could be the update not being loaded properly.
2. Editing old posts was blocked to prevent vandalism by former moderators who own a lot of posts in important positions.

I have no idea if number 2 is still in effect.

 

[Luorax]

It is, I still can't edit my older posts. It sounds like a bad solution though, making demoted moderators only unable to edit anything would've been better for all of us.

 

[Dr Super Good]

Is it not possible to disable editing only for those select sections (such as news)?

 

[Luorax]

Yea, would also be good. Those users who run projects, or have any kind of constantly edited threads in other sections are now stuck, because they can't edit the important posts.

 

[Mr_Bean]

Yup, I can't update my spell workshop

 

[Pharaoh_]

Important edits may be ordered to me, but since there's a lot to process at the moment, I will first assess the importance of the edits, before I actually do them, so please, I need your understanding at this.

Try to avoid PM's, I am almost full.

 

[Mr_Bean]

So does anyone know when we will be able to edit again? I really need to update some of my posts...

You can PM a moderator of your section and ask them to edit it, they should be able to do it for you. (at least I can here, so I'm assuming it's the case elsewhere)

 

[Mr_Bean]

Never mind, it works again. Thanks anyway.
