UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.threads 7 Version 7 Support users cannot edit other user's posts

Hello,

I have enabled "edit any post" option in the CP for the user group. Every user now can see "edit" button for any post, but when a user try to use it, he/she gets the massage "you cannot edit this post" if this is not his/her own post. "Edit post time limit" is sufficient, so this is not the reason for not being able to edit. So what do I need to do for this option to work?

Thanks a lot,
Roman

My gut feeling is we should not even see that setting for regular users.
Seems to automatically fill in as a 1 for admins,moderators and global moderators.

Thanks, but that doesn't answer my question.

Okay then.
Until Rick responds or you open a support ticket.

What I am saying is that permission seems to be reserved for admins and moderators only but it appears as a permission for all groups and probably should not.
So some modification to the code would be needed to make it work that way.

But I don't understand why anyone would desire to allow any user to edit any other users post.

I believe there is a check in place so even if you have it so regular users can "edit any post" it still won't allow it. Just kind of a safety measure in case it's accidentally clicked, since 99% of the time this isn't something anyone would want.

What you probably want to do is add another group and have everyone belong to that group as well and then you can assign the permission to that group.

Well, I did what you said, created a group, assigned corresponding permissions, but still the users (members of the newly created group) are not being able to edit other user's post

Time for a support ticket then.But it looks to be a bug related to the regonly value.
