what error message you get when you click unlock thread?
as far I know you can't edit OP if thread is locked so try unlocking thread first and then edit

Did you try unlock it at the bottom left or are you trying to unlock it by editing it?

I don't think the edit button will be there if the thread is locked... saw a locked thread of mine and there's no edit button.

No. Again, as said above, look in the bottom left hand corner of the page and you should see a small link that says "unlock thread". Click that and it should unlock the thread.

It seems like such a weird place for an unlock button, I'm sure most people have made this mistake.

You can practise with locking this thread now :P
