New to the KiasuParents forum? Tips and Tricks!

If you have just posted something, and don’t see your post on our forum, there are a few reasons why:
#1 We’ve deleted your post due to spammy/inappropriate content
#2 You posted multiple times, in non-relevant threads
#3 You posted in an older topic thread — this is a data migration issue on our side, where some older topics are not displaying the complete thread/postsIf you think #3 is the reason that your post has “disappeared,” please let us know here!

We just received a user question on how to edit posts:
Simply click on the three dots at the bottom right of your post, to reveal the menu. You may not be able to see all of the options shown in this screencap, but you can definitely edit or delete your post.
Update 1: For regular users, the default setting for edits is currently 5 seconds. We are speaking to our tech team to increase this window.
Update 2: The forum default setting has been changed — users now have a 24-hour window to edit new posts.

Whenever I try that, I get a message that I can only edit a post within 5 seconds of posting. That effectively means that I’ve never been able to.

@slmkhoo Thanks for letting us know!
Edited to Add: Yes, indeed the current setting for non-admin users is 5 seconds.
Please give us some time to improve this

@thebottomsupblog Thanks! Maybe give us at least 12 to 24 hrs? Sometimes, I only realise I made an error much later, definitely not within a few seconds or even minutes.
On the old board, the poster could edit without any time limits. -
@slmkhoo yes it’s been changed to 24 hours!

@thebottomsupblog Are you the new official guru/moderator? Hope to see KSP revive!
I have a request about arrangement of posts - I like that the original post is pinned at the beginning, but could it be marked out in some way? Like a different colour, with a label saying “original post”? It’s a bit confusing that the first post is at the top, then the rest are in reverse order (with latest first).
-
@slmkhoo Haha yes I’m helping to get rid of spam, make gradual improvements, and build community here again!
I think your view settings are for newest to oldest. The default setting is from oldest to newest. It makes sense for the original post to be coloured differently; let me bring that request to the tech team.

I think your view settings are for newest to oldest. The default setting is from oldest to newest.I didn’t realise this! I don’t recall changing it. I’ve set it to “oldest to newest” now - I think I’ll find this more intuitive.
