Lost the option to edit a recent post

Had it for a short time after my first post.  Now it is gone.

 

Seems like someone is asleep at the switch when monitoring this requested feedback thread!

    FWIW, I am still seeing that option.

     

    Was this the first post in a discussion thread, or was it a reply?

      Cannot edit either, first post or a reply.

    Made another reply post a few minutes ago.  No option to edit once the reply was posted.

     

    What web browser and operating system are you using?

     

    I am using Firefox on Windows 11.

      Chrome on Windows 11.

       

      Though my forum status might also be relevant here.

        I was thinking the same thing but have no way of knowing for sure.

  • I also don't see an edit option to my own recent posts. :(

      There is a fairly short timeout (no idea what it is).

        Really? I just posted and tried to edit it. It's not there.

  • Likewise.  I was completely unable to log in for some time (now fixed, but Netgear didn't tell me why/how) and now that I am again able to log in, I cannot edit a post, even one that I just posted seconds before.
