    Hi,
    Some of my posts were used in a manner which required me to edit them regularily. Now I seem to be unable to edit them, there is no Edit button displayed anymore for the old posts. What could be the reason?

    This is to stop people going back through their old posts to edit them "after the fact", which can then make a thread make little sense, as has happened a few times in the past, so LWM decided to turn on a "no edit" feature for posts older than one week...

    Hope this helps...

    Cheers :D

    Feel free to send a PM to one of the Global Moderators or myself regarding whatever you'd like updated.
