Post editing – time limit

Yes I would do it if I could! Editing the post seems inaccessible to me. Can you do it? : ]

Interesting, you should have the permission to do it… Have you tried clicking on the pen below your posting…?

I have a pen under other posts, but not the first one!

Could it be that it’s hidden behind those three dots?

There’s no three dots either. Here’s attachment:

Could it be related to moving the topic to announcements? Originally I had trouble making the topic in the announcements section, and that is why I created it in the support and discussions.

editing posts is time-limited. I don’t recall what the tiime limit is, but I remember seeing that in the Discourse docs somewhere.

You’re right! I just checked, and our limit is currently set to 24 hours. Should we maybe increase that?

no objection from me… maybe 3 days?

Yes let’s just try that and see how it goes.

btw I’ve split this discussion into a new thread.

Ok, I’ve changed it to 72 hours now (3 days).
