Title: Are mods notified when posts are edited? Post by: finkleshnorts on July 15, 2012, 03:56:25 AM I'm curious.
I edit my posts frequently for grammatical mistakes, parallelisms, and clarity. Is this annoying/discouraged/suspicious? (speaking of parallelisms...) Thanks, OCD bob Title: Re: Are mods notified when posts are edited? Post by: John (John K.) on July 15, 2012, 03:59:01 AM I'm curious. Nope, we're not notified unless you press the 'Report to moderator'.I edit my posts frequently for grammatical mistakes, parallelisms, and clarity. Is this annoying/discouraged/suspicious?

That is worth the switch to SMF default. thanksTitle: Re: Are mods notified when posts are edited? Post by: theymos on July 15, 2012, 06:17:04 PM Did not know. That is worth the switch to SMF default. thanks Be aware that the other themes aren't supported. They're missing features and some things might be broken. I just added last edit info to the Bitcoin theme. Hover your cursor over the post time. Edits aren't recorded when they occur within 5 minutes of the post time. (This has always been the case.)

Excellent excellent excellent. This is very useful. For anyone that can't see the difference, what is shown is a dotted underline under the post time if there has been an edit. When you hover over it, it changes the cursor to a question mark pointer and shows you the last edited time. Edits aren't recorded when they occur within 5 minutes of the post time. (This has always been the case.) Thanks again, theymos. Great way of implementing this feature unobtrusively. |
