Hello! On the forum i am trying to build it appears that Participants can only reply to a message and not edit their own messages, unless its a fresh reply and during the first minutes and in that case the edit link appears. But when the participant comes back on the forum after a longer period, only the “Reply” link appears, even on its own message.

On my previous question on your forum (https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/404-error-with-edit-on-a-wpml-multilingual-forum/) I experienced the same thing, but is it the normal function or should I see the “Edit” link ?

Is there a way for a participant to edit its own messages regardless of time ?

start with

dashboard>settings>forums>forum user settings has a parameter

Disallow editing after xx minutes

see what that is set to
