No way to edit or revise post to community once it is posted

[SoundW0rm93]

Hi there,

This is not an issue with Premiere Pro but rather an issue with the community forum itself. I recently posted a bug report regarding multicam clip names, but the website was lagging and being unresposnive as I attempted to select a topic tag, and I accidentally clicked "export" as I published the post.

My issue that I encountered had nothing to do with exporting, yet that bug report is now filtered into a category that it doesn't belong in, and there seems to be no option to revise the category tags. Please have your developers make changes to this site so that this is possible. Reddit allows this, Adobe should as well.

Agreed. 🙂

Point me to your submission (directly, not here, if you like), and I'll try to use my Forum Powers™ to put it in the right place.

Adobe has a firm corporate policy as to how their forums are usable. As a former mod here myself, I could say edit a post, I could mark/unmark it as correct, I could move a post to the 'correct' forum within limits, and I could flag it for staffer attention.

I could not delete or remove a post from all forums. Only staffers can do that.

Now, like any other user,  all I can do after posting is edit my own posts. And that is all I or thee can do. I can't move, delete, any of that. And I can only mark things correct if I started the thread.

So a staffer would have to be notified to remove a post.

I see Bruce's response, so you may have what you need. But, since I've drafted this, I'll add my comments!

What you want is possible, but only if you see the 3 dots (... More) at the end of your post. When you click on this, you should see "Edit post." I am not a Moderator, but am an official helper, but I don't think I have any "powers" that you do not have.

I tested on a Bug report I submitted, and when I went into "Edit post," I could click on the categories and add/change them.

Sometimes a user with very few posts does not have the edit option. I don't know the threshold, but you have several posts. I'm curious as to whether you see the edit option or not.

A (new) user needs to have posted quite a few posts here on the forum before being able to edit their own post.

Alas, this is Adobe's policy to reduce the amount of spam.

Do not make a new post or a third.

Just write what you want to change in the post and a mod will do this for you.
