I mean you posting up two different posts to ask me that one question. If you wanted to add "ahill" to the end of what you typed in the previous post you should have clicked on "EDIT" instead of "REPLY".

The EDIT button will allow you to add additional test to a post you already submitted (or saved). The button can be found next to the "QUOTE" button on posts that you wrote. You cannot edit other peoples posts unless you are a moderator or administrator.

Arr4545, it is considered improper forum edicate to post multiply times in a row. If you post and then think of something else to write edit the last post instead of creating a new one. I'll do it here and you'll see that it shows the post was edited.

When you read your last post it will have a edit link as well as a reply link and quote linkunder it.

Click on edit and your post will come back up in a window you can add to it or make changes. Then go to the bottom of that window and click edit again.

It will then go to another window with the modified post and you go to the bottom and click SAVE CHANGES. That's all there is to it.

Yes, I imagine eventually we will have FAQs on the board on how to use the many different features.

well can we start a forum on that?

ahill3780

No need for a seperate forum for it. I will throw together a few threads on some of the common issues and see if Jay or NortH can sticky them somewhere for now. Ideally they should be located in the FAQ section of the site.

This thread has really started to wander and has lost the theme. I am going to close it so a new thread can pick up the original intent.
