Modify/edit posts?

[Noreen]

I've seen in the Help section that there is a modify button but I couldn't find it in my post, is there one?

Hi Noreen, there is a button in the top right of posts you have made...BUT...it disappears after a preset time,you do not have long to go back and alter mistakes.

Thanks, I wonder what that time is because it would be handy to know. For instance there is no modify button now on my previous post in this thread.

edit: just checked with this post and as you say there is one at the moment.

The time limit is 30 minutes, Noreen. After that time, you can ask a staff member to make a modification for you.

Thanks Rik.
