CoffeeCake Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 (edited) I posted a reply to a thread, edited that post to add a very upset and vibrating Will Ferrell and provided an edit reason, and then created a new reply to quote @bfarber, a god amongst men. The result is here: Since the two replies were made within the "merge multiple replies into a single post" threshold, the two posts were merged. This resulted in the message that showed that I had edited the post along with the timestamp of the edit vanished (though it shows "edited" at the top). From a UX perspective, I recommend showing the edited by user message when posts are merged. I would understand clearing out the reason (as there's a new edit, caused by merging), but the "edited by" message and timestamp should still appear I think. Here I am making an edit.... New reply... merge, baby, merge... Edited August 31, 2020 by Paul E. Doing edity things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
