Hi @flygye12, I found a setting for this in Vanilla forums, users should now be able to edit their posts up to 4 hours after posting. Thanks!
Hmm, something seems to be up with Vanilla. I changed the setting several times, but it keeps reverting back to āAuthors may never editā. It appears to be a bug, so it may have to wait until the next time Ross updates the forum software
Hi flygye12 and Sandra,
Sorry for the delay in responding to this! When I looked at this initially, Vanilla had updated itself to v3.2, and so updating was not an option. However, v3.3 has since come out, and the forum has again atuomagically updated itself. The issue is still happening.
Iāve reported this to the Vanilla team as a bug:
https://github.com/vanilla/vanilla/issues/10583
Letās see if they can help us sort it out.
Thanks,
Ross
It turns out that the config is stored in a file, which was not writable by the web server.
Iāve fixed this now, and set the edit setting.
@flygye12 do you want to try and edit a post?
@admin I would like to, but still canāt find the edit button
Hi flygye12, did you try using the cog icon at the top right of a post?
Hopefully you can see it there, otherwise Iāll dig in again and see what is going on. Thanks!
Nope canāt see it !
Test
Yep, not working here too. No cog icon shows.
Hmmm, this is indeed odd. Iāve checked the setting in the Vanilla Dashboard, and it has unset. However, looking in the config file, it is correctly set there.
Iāve reopened the issue on with Vanilla, and weāll see what they come back with. https://github.com/vanilla/vanilla/issues/10583
Thanks! Ross
