Ooh, I suspected but wasn't sure Olympus would have that feature, but after what you said I assume this is so and am glad such a feature is present. _________________ [ The Infinity Program Forum ]

It's hidden somewhere in the CVS version I'm running, can't remember where it is now that the ACP is so huge but it's in there  _________________ MMO Gaming |

Well this feature isn't available in SMF. Well it is, but it is not a User Group permission. I need it to be a usergroup permission, because in my forum, "Editors" are required to keep updating their list (post) and hence I made my own HACK to make it a user group. Couldn't make it into a MOD though, so manually went and modified SMF code to make it as a Usergroup Permission than a global setting.
I've documented it in detail so everytime I upgrade my forum, I can apply the hack again.
I've currently increased the time to 24 hours. I don't know why I did it though I just felt like trusting my members more because of the few members I have all of them I know are not the type to do abuse their rights
I'm glad I have the mechanics set up though, I can with a click of a mouse bring back post editing time restrictions very easily. And that gives me a lot of reassurance

Teknomancer been there too ..
This is why on my main Martial Arts forum (the Romanian one) they can edit a message till 15 minutes pass from the initial post. I don't want to have to go through this again (having to salvage what I could from hundreds of posts) |
Ouch!! 15 minutes IMO is waay too low  _________________ Toons & Comics Community

hi all
it's the quote button i don't like
one of my members in fun so they said, changed part of another members post, changed parts to capital letters, made some words bold and added words.
I was not amused or the person who did the posting
it was done in fun, but i feel someone could do this and cause a lot of problems |

15 minutes sound reasonable to me. I take it upon myself to make sure I'm satisfied with my post before I leave. _________________ [ The Infinity Program Forum ]
