Am I being silly, but....

How do you edit posts on here?

 

[Rob Gaskin]

Click 'Edit'.

And 'Edit' is one of those hard to read words in a funny type-face in the bottom right corner of each post!

Click 'Edit'.

And for 'Website Members'...?

The simple answer is that, as a lowly 'Website Member', you can't edit your posts.

I've no idea why that is the case...

I don't know either!

Thank you.

Well, that's odd. It surely must be just as irritating for members to see typos from newbies, as well.

I'm a member and I can edit. Hopefully the screenshot attached shows where the button is.

I noticed when my membership lapsed that the option to edit was missing so typo's seen after posting could not be altered. No big deal really and I do hate edited posts as you never know what was originally said so the whole thread becomes disjointed.

Agreed. But, personally speaking, it's annoying to spot a typo you missed before hitting the 'Submit' button and not being able to put it right.

I can understand 'Website Member' status giving less forum functionality/privilege than 'Z Club Member' status, but to take away the ability to edit/correct your own posts seems rather obtuse...

This. It's just my opinion, but I actually think it results in the opposite to what johnymd was saying. The thread becomes cluttered with double posts (a second post to correct the first).
