pk62004 Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 I edit a lot of people's post on my forum, only to have them re-edit over my edit. Being an admin, it would make sense that my power supercedes theirs. It would be nice to have it so that if an admin/mod edits a post, then normal members cannot edit that post again.And if they attempt to re-edit the post, then maybe throw an error msg saying, "You cannot override an admin edit." or something of that nature.

Alex Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 I made a similar modification for this but it was adding a new permission next to read, reply, upload etc. Maybe for 3.0 could IPS add one called Edit, because in some forums I only want certain groups to edit posts.

Mat Barrie Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 I think perhaps the closest implementation to this (and the only reasonable way I can think of to implement this type of feature) is that used by IGNBoards software - once a moderator or higher has edited a post, it is still editable. However, if a moderator or higher LOCKS a thread, the topic starter loses the ability to edit it. That said, with IGNBoards, users can lock their own threads. So there are some differences that might look like Apples to Pears at first glance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
