A couple of people have asked about being able to edit their own posts at any time after they have appeared on the board.
Asking around it seems that in general this is thought not to be a good idea as it could render a thread unreadable and could also make it impossible to trace back a comment in the event of a problem. Vbulletin in standard form allows users to go back and correct a post for up to ten minutes after the post has appeared on the board.
Bearing in mind my wife's dyslexia and the other requests received this does seem like a very short period and I've therefore extended this to one hour.
Hope this helps
