Edit option

My posters dont have the " Edit " option in thier posts , I fix it in the Admin Panel and it works once until you update the page then it disapears . I am the only one ( not as Adimin as a member ) who has this option . Any ideas , cheers

Hey Geezer

General>messages and Emails>Configuration
Post edit duration limit for a member: Check None.
Save

Thanks Sanket . It was already checked so I saved it again and we will see how it goes .Cheers , Geezer

Yes, but the time period is it all 0 as well?

Yes mate , 0 days 0 hours 0 minutes

Are you sure you checked the permissions for members correctly & they are allowed to edit their posts?

Not too sure about the last part Sanket , I,m still pretty new to this . It seems to be ok for now , anymore help is much apreciated

General>Categories and Forums
Click on a forum name
Permissions tab.
THe members should be allowed to edit posts, check it.

Done and I think /hope its sorted , Thanks for your help Sanket . If it goes pear shaped I will revert back to this Thread . You can mark this solved dude

You can mark it solved, after its confirmed solved.

Done everything you said Sanket but the problems back . The " Edit " option is on my posts as Geezer and when I log in as Admin but no Edit option on the other members posts

Can you PM me a test members account to check on your forum?

I most certainly would Sanket if I knew how Just logged in as Admin and all the " Edit " options are visable

Than is it solved or

Not yet Nera , if I log out as Admin and log in as a memeber it disapears

Geezer, could you send either me or Sanket a test account to see this for ourselves?

Sanket: https://help.forumotion.com/privmsg?mode=post&u=7065

Just send the username and password in a PM.

Done

Thanks! Now I just need a forum link.

No problem. I've made a test post on your forum and I can see the edit button just fine (see red highlighted area):



What do you see?

Its fine when I am logged in as Admin , but soon as I log in as Geezer it is there but then as soon as I update the page it is gone apart from my posts Wierd or what ?

Well I'm not experiencing any problems on my side. Try clearing your cache: https://help.forumotion.com/t22597-how-to-clear-the-cache-in-firefox-internet-explore-chrome

Done that , no change

What is the problem? Does it disappear for you as a admin or it does not appear for any of the members?

When I,m logged in as Admin it is there for me and all members no matter what . When I am logged in as Geezer ( My members name ) it is there for me and all members untill the page is refreshed by me or any of the members and the same goes for the forums Mod . I hope that explains it

Can you post a screenshot of the same, when the page is refreshed?

I don't understand, the edit button works fine for me. Are you mistaking no moderation powers with no edit button? Because as an admin, you would be able to edit anyone's post whereas as a member, you would only be able to edit your own posts.

I understand the powers as Admin and editing . The problem is , when the members post they cannot edit . As I have said before , myself as a member has the power to edit and as Admin , as you see by my screen shot next to " Quote " there is no " Edit " option , why ?

Maybe I can help:

Geezer is saying when a member goes to a their posts, they see the Edit button, but if they reload the page, the Edit button is gone.
