"The_Deplorable Is the post more than a week old? I have a rule in
the code that a thread more than a week old cannot be edited or deleted. Maybe I
should change that."

Patrick: If it can be done easily then please do. This, in my thinking, could prove to
be an advantage for Patrick.net because as time goes on, topics grow and we can
make the topic of a thread more inclusive by editing the title of the thread. In other
words there is no need to start another thread with a similar topic.


@The_Deplorable OK, done.

Any thread author should now be able to edit the text of the original post at any time.

Let me know if you have any trouble editing a thread you created.

But it's still not allowed to delete a thread that is more than a week old, because people make a lot of comments, and then those comments would become very hard to find if the original thread got deleted. You'd have to look in a specific user's comments to find one from a deleted thread.

Woot! Never sure if I dotted all the i's and crossed all the t's until people start using something.
