I’m a bit confused about this. If I have a site with only wiki posts, and I edit a wiki post it doesn’t appear at the top of latest. Am I doing something wrong? I can see searching here that someone mentions that it only bumps to the top if its a reply or if it was the last edited post. How can I …

There is no setting in Discourse that bumps a topic when any post in that topic is edited. If you want that behavior I suggest making sure you are always editing the last post, and one way to ensure that is to close the topic after the first post so there is a single post in the topic.

This doesn’t work for me because I have wiki entries that are larger that 90000 characters, so I split them into multiple posts.

You’ll need to make sure you always edit the last post as a part of your cycle, then.

New way to track edits on wiki posts?
