Currently it seems there is only one universal option (which seems to be set to one day by default). If there isn’t a way to change editing times can I suggest the following please: Allow an option to change editing time for TL3 users. (It’s less likely that TL3 users will abuse the system.) Allo…

One day is not the default, the default is 60 or 90 days as I recall.

On mine it says this as the default: [image] Edit: Ah sorry - I thought it was seconds lol, that’s 60 days. Are edited posts always bumped in the Latest List? If so I can just expand that to 4 months as a stop gap solution…

One setting just isn’t adequate for a busy modern forum tbh. What do you think of expanding the editing options? Perhaps something like: Allow an option to change editing time based on Trust Level. (It’s less likely that TL3 users will abuse the system.) Allow editing times for the first post in a…

What is the use case? Describe the real world problem, with actual live examples, this would solve. I do not mean hypotheticals, I mean actual real world situations you have run into that would necessitate this.

Ok I’ve moved the thread that started this discussion to a publicly viewable section: https://elixirforum.com/t/can-you-increase-post-edit-time-limit/6080 With regards to real world problems we have several categories where the first post needs to be kept up-to-date, this includes: Developer Profi…
