So my website is a creative writing site, where people collaborate on stories. That being said, being able to edit posts is really important. However even with the setting enabled they seem to be unable to edit posts. Since I wanted the max amount of time to allow for editing I set the time allowed for editing to like 99999.

My members still cannot edit their posts though, is there somewhere else I’m missing? I’ve looked everywhere. And is there a way to make it so that they can edit it whenever?

my domain is roleplaycentral.org

Thanks!

I did all that, then tried to change the edit time.

Apparently don’t put 9999 else it will break and not allow anyone to edit.

Is there anyway to editing indefinite?

I believe the following in your functions file should work

function no_edit_lock($retval, $cur_time, $lock_time, $post_date_gmt){
 return false;
 }
 add_filter( ‘bbp_past_edit_lock’, ‘no_edit_lock’, 1, 4);

Functions files and child themes – explained !

Please come back and tell us if it does !

Didn’t cancel my users ability to edit, I’ll let you know in some time if it stops them from editing at a later date.

Great thanks – it should work, just I haven’t tested !

It seems to break after a week, also. Any idea how to make it not show edits doubly? It likes to show that someone edited it twice. As well as double posting the post in our activity feed if it was just posted.
