    I'm not totally sure if this works:

    My suggestion would be(but that would probably also stop yourself from editing)
    You can go to administration panel/Display/pics management/advance/buttons
    and then simply remove the picture of the edit button. Smile

    You can set an edit duration or takeaway their ability to edit by going to

    ACP --> General --> Messages and Emails --> Configuration

    You'll find the options there

    Also you can change the forums' permissions. 

    Administration Panel > General > Forum > Categories and Forums

    think it only works for new post

    u can use css to hide the button

    Code:
    a[href*="editpost"]{display:none!important;}

    or a script to remove it for everyone but admin

    Code:
    $(function(){
    if(_userdata.user_level == 1){}else{$('a[href*="editpost"]').remove();}
    });

    or goto acp>display>templates>viewtopic_body

    and remove

    Code:
    <li>{postrow.displayed.EDIT_IMG}</li>

    im sure i could think of a few more ways if u still need help

    Hello @Mariami,

    They have to work. As Derri said, in Configuration there you will have option "Post edit duration limit for a member". Just set it to zero, however Moderators and Administrators won't be affected by this most probably. This option can be used for example when you want to allow members to edit their posts for a while and then restrict it not to have things such as members raging and then removing their contribution posts later on (posted GFX work, tutorials etc).

    But, if you want to disable editing for your regular members as a whole, simply go to permissions as SLGray told you "Categories and forums" and then you have to open up permissions of all forums you want to disable editing, scroll down to Advanced Mode and click it to expand permissions tab. Then find "Edit its own messages" and uncheck for all groups you want to disable. That has to work.
