Unless I am missing the button somewhere, I have not found a way to edit a post that you have already posted to the forum.  For example, if you post something and you realise that you misspelled something.  Would it be possible to have this as a feature of these forums?

    I think that it is an option under "More".

    Ok, why didn't I think to look under that box?  LOL.  Thanks for settling this mystery!

    After sometime has gone by the "more option" on your right ("more") does not allow one to edit or delete. In the Newsgroup one can delete or cancel one's messages, i would like  to see such a feature in the forum. Again let me repeat, it is possible to delete or edit one's post initially via "more" however after a period of time this is no longer the case.

    If I remeber right, it is 10 hours after you wrote the post. It is logical to me. If your post initiates some responses, you shouldn't be allowed to delete it or change the content. 10 hours look enough to me.
