churchi Posted July 28, 2016 Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 Hi @Stile88, can you re-explain the issue so i can look into it for you mate? I dont fully understand what you have mentioned above. Happy to make the change for you just need you to explain it maybe a different way. Thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stile88 Posted July 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 (edited) @churchi When i make a post and lets say i left a word out or made a mistake now i go back to edit it and usually right away I will leave a edit mark in the post now on my forum i can adujust this per user group or have no time limit at all but i reserve the no time limit to my admins You should be able to adjust time limit here Hope that is more clearer and thanks for looking into it Edited July 28, 2016 by Stile88 this edit mark is what i mean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
churchi Posted July 28, 2016 Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 Thanks @Stile88. Ok i get it now. So you want the edited mark that is auto put in by the system to allow you to freely edit for x amount of minutes before it will show up as edited content? So i looked around and it seems i dont have that time limit option. I can either allow you to edit silently or it will always show the edited remark when you edit your post. I like the idea of the time delay before the edit marks show up, however i dont believe IPS has that option. Ill have to go look for an addon to see if this can be implemented. Below is a screenshot of what i see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stile88 Posted July 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 @churchi In that pic edit time rescriction you have a block that can put in minutes or check box for unlimited so it looks like you do have that option i set mine for all my users besides staff for 10 min That screen is it a usergroup or a forum wide or individual btw 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
churchi Posted July 28, 2016 Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 Cheers thanks for pointing that out @Stile88 The image i had posted was of a user group. I have made the change you suggested to 10 minutes. Would you mind giving it a try and let me know if that is what you are after? Cheers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stile88 Posted July 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 (edited) Here is test post for editing post Looks @churchi like it didnt work but its progress thanks for looking into it my friend Edited July 28, 2016 by Stile88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
churchi Posted July 28, 2016 Report Share Posted July 28, 2016 Yeah it looks like it didnt seem to work @Stile88. I guess i would have to allow you to edit silently and just enforce the 10 min edit so that people know that content has not been changed since that post (which is basically what this feature is for). Do you think its best to just enforce the 10min edit limit, and turn off the edited notification? Wondering if we need the notification if there is now a 10min limit on the edits. I guess there is no easy setting to change to achieve what the other board software can do. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea try that leave the 10 min in there and check the edit silently that might do the trick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
