Hi,
I have a small problem with the allowed edit time for participants.
At first it never showed up, until I set it to 600 minutes (standard I had 60min)

So I tried to increase the settings by 60 minutes to see when the edit link would show.
For me it is 420+ minutes. 420 minutes is 7 hours and my WP/Forum is set to UTC +7.00 hours.

So I solved it by setting the allowed edit time to 480 minutes, which gives participants in reality 60 minutes.

I am testing this now but I cannot reproduce it.

Do you the correct time zone +7UTC set in WordPress’ settings?

Yes, UTC+7 in options-general.php

I have the time display on custum (j F Y), but that should not interfere.

I just did some more checking and set the UTC to the standard UTC+0

That made no diference on new posts edit time, still had to set it above 420 minutes.
I think this means that the edit time is related to the IP address/location, since my location is UTC+7

To test this you could use a VPN and pretend to be in an other location/timezone.

Nevermind, I found the problem. I remembered I did this before:

I have a statistics plugin that uses the server time instead of the WP timezone settings.

Therefore I added <?php date_default_timezone_set('Asia/Bangkok'); ?> to the plugins php and that was in the sidebar always present.

Now I removed it the Edit Allowed Time works correct.

Cool, thanks for the update 🙂
