Re:Can regular users edit their own posts? Posted by Joker 15 Aug 2003 15:52 UTC posts: 11 I might be wrong, I'm looking at my forums and the edit button for any post is only available for moderators or admins. I think post editing by the user who originated the post should be a feature.

I've been setting up my own Tiki for many days and so far found everything I needed but answer to this problem. ("Regular user" is here defined as someone having all permissions for registered and basic users.)

Hi guys, Yes thats correct. The Edit link is at the moment like a moderator/admin option. I personally think thats good. well actually the perfect solution would be to allow editing by the user until someone posts a reply, then only a moderator or admin should be allowed to edit it, so not to break the story in the thread. What do you think?

Posted by Tomáš J. Fülöpp 29 Jan 2004 13:21 UTC posts: 10 Thanks for the reply but... is it really supposed to work that way, Damian? I have posted several messages to the tikiwiki.org forums and I can see that I always have the option of editing those messages. So that is good. Except, on my own installation (1.7.4.) it does not work that way — there, as you say, only moderators and admins can edit messages, but then all of them. Could you please explain?

I know that the 1.8 forums are different to the 1.7.x family forums in terms of code. Maybe we can look at them and get something fixed for a 1.7.6? As far as I'm aware the if you enable edit forum posts in 1.7.x at the moment, you can edit them all. its like a moderator permission. I'll double check and post back later today once I get 5 mins. 😉 Stay tuned! Damian
