How do I edit a message once it is posted

[Steve Joblin]

I tried to create a message in the "sandbox" area, post it, then go back in and edit it. When I try to go back in to edit it, I press "Post New Topic", but I get a screen that says that only the Administrator or author can modify this post... I am the author!

What am I doing wrong?

Well, it does indeed seemed fixed! thanks!

Have you entered your user name and password before pressing the post button?

Just tried to edit my last like I've done before and found the error message.... I presume the forum is broken at the moment!

Yes, I realize that I need to enter in my user name and password...

I have tried this for the last few days and it has never worked, so it must be broken for a while...

Forum Manager... Please confirm if this is the case... Thanks!

It does seem to be a Forum problem at Rev-Ed's end.

It also applies to edits in all forums.

I made an edit yesterday at 9pm, so can't have been faulty very long. Probably since the new forum.
Incidentally, why this one show 10 posts when there are 3 threads totalling 7 responses?

7 replies + 3 original posts = 10

We'll look into the editing issue and fix within next 24 hours.

Editing should be fixed now for all, sorry for the hiccup.
