Editing Posts

I seem to have lost the ability to edit my posts. The EDIT button seems to be missing in action.

Your edit area is right at the bottom where you see it edit and quote

After a certain amount of time you can no longer edit your posts. I think it's 20 minutes or something like that.

That's right you have 15-20 minutes to edit your post then the button disappears when your time is up. It the edit you wanted to do is a serious issue such as a misleading statement or an error in a recipe, a mod can fix it for you.

See there, sometimes I do pay attention in class.

Thanks for the replies! That explains it.

If you have a post that needs an edit after the edit window has passed, just contact a moderator and ask for an assist - we're happy to help.

Or, you can just let your original post be, so that other DC members can reply, "you're wrong! you're a clueless dolt!" Makes for a livelier discussion. Most of my editing impulses go that way.

Thanks for asking the question .40, I was wondering about it too.

(Shoot, I just went and did my first edit! Yay! When I realized that I mis-wrote the caliber number.)

If you admit a mistake we still get to call you a clueless dolt!
