I have made a grave error and edited, rather than quoted, a player post. Does US support edit history in any way?
My cursory search indicates this isn’t a native feature of phpBB, but I’m not super familiar and I’m hopeful I’m not the first person with this problem.
If not, I understand, just needed to know. Thanks in advance!

Re: Edit History
I don't believe so, but can you post a link to the post that was edited so we can take a look?
Re: Edit History
Certainly, and thank you for your help!
I believe this is the correct link.

Re: Edit History
Hmm. I think the default setting is to not allow editing others posts. Probably for that very reason, Dave will know better than I. If I remember from DF there isn’t an easy way to get the info (something about digging it out of the database??) if you can access it at all. :/
I’m hoping Dave finds a different answer for you though Eric. Fingers crossed!

This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.
Re: Edit History
One of my players had the original post open in an old tab that hadn’t refreshed, so there’s no emergency at this point.
If Dave knows more, I’m happy to learn for next time, though.
Thank you so much for your help, once again!

Re: Edit History
That’s great though. Phew!

Re: Edit History
I finally carved out some time to research this a bit. Because Eric is the forum moderator, his permissions do include edit (but not hard delete) access:rredmond wrote: ↑Thu May 02, 2024 9:21 pm Hmm.

There might possibly be some extra functionality at the database level, but that access falls under Greg's (ToniXX) exclusive purview.
I'm just glad it sounds like no permanent damage was done.

Thank you for looking into this closely! I will exercise my moderation abilities more carefully moving forward.
