After an edit... Created 16 years ago2007-10-23 14:21:20 UTC by Killer-Duck

After you've made an edit to a post it would be nice if the site transfered you back to the forum or the post you edited. As it is now it just says "Done!" and you'll need to manually go back to the forums by using the menu to the left.

Yes please. Its a pain in the butt.

It'd also be nice if you could edit all your posts... and possibly delete your own, to help keep double posting accidents to a minimum...

I like it.
Would it be possible to make en edited post appear as new in the forum list as well?
So if someone had the last post then edited instead of bumping after a few days people can get notice, and read the update

I'm not absolutely sure, but I believe TWHL3 will take you straight back to your post when you edit or first make the post (essentially just refreshing the thread page).

You want people to be able to edit ALL of their old posts? This is a bad idea, people would be able to change their arguements and opinions on-the-fly and just cause more trouble then usual. If an old post desperately needs changing or something removed, you can ask a mod.

Deleting your own last post could be an option, though, I don't know.

I too like this idea, but again, i'm not sure. Wait and see what Penguinboy or Ant have to say on the matter.

yeah maybe you're right, but i'd REALLY like the option to delete... =)

i'm for deleting last post

Would be useful if the origenal post could always be edited, so threads on maps or mods underconstruction can update the 1st post with new info and screenshots.

I' for being able to delete the last post. This way if you post something you didn't intent to you can get rid of it rather than editing it to a "REMOVED" message or something...

? TWHL3 already redirects straight to the thread. this is the same for:
◊ making new threads redirects straight to the new thread
◊ new posts redirect straight to the thread it was posted on
◊ (not done yet) Private Messages deleting, sending redirect to inbox
◊ editing and deleting forum posts redirect to thread
◊ (i never use the map vault, but if it doesn't already, posting maps redirects to the map page)
◊ (same goes for map comments)
◊ as well as other new stuff such as projects, project forums, tutorial comments, journal comments, project news updates, new projects, etc etc, i think you get the idea.

? I haven't even thought about the code for "new threads", but i'm pretty sure newly edited threads get the little green dot atm, just not bumped.
? editing any post except your last post is not an option.
