Hi SOH, forum technical question for you. Today I re-read a post I wrote at 11:30pm last night and wanted to make a couple minor edits but today I can't figure out how to do that. A few days ago I was able to go back and correct some misspellings in a post I had done a day or two before, am I missing something or did something change.

Did that change recently? It seems very short. Since these forum posts live for ever, if I have posted something incorrect and discovered it several days later I should be able to go back and correct it.

It's been that way for years, but if you really want to edit a post, just ask an admin who will do it for you.
