Please let me know if things seem to be working for you. Some of you might be affected by the recent change I made so if you find yourself unable to edit your posts, let me know and I can put in a workaround for you.

Is this only through the website, or should this work through tapatalk as well? Because I still cant edit through tapatalk. I can edit through the website.

Not sure about how Tapatalk works but if it uses the forum settings, posts should be editable everywhere. There might be some delay for Tapatalk to update.

What do you see when you try to edit posts via Tapatalk?

I see this at the bottom of my screen: Illegal use of $_POST. You must use the request class to access input data. And then it lists what I think is a file folder.

Awesome. Thanks for making it work! We all appreciate the work you put into making this forum great. Now to try to cross-reference my grow list

Ah, that's probably related to a security patch I installed on the server to prevent malicious injection of code. Weird that whatever Tapatalk is trying to do when editing posts is triggering the security software. You might try reporting that one to the Tapatalk people and see what they say.

Great news on the updated growlists! I'm glad I still have enough of a skillset with web technology to be able to fix custom stuff like this to address the ever-growing threat of spammers and other nefarious people out there while making the forums still usable for everyone else

Yep
