Edit feature

[aliris]

Apologies if I should know this from instructions somewhere but I can't seem to find this mentioned:

Why does the edit feature appear sometimes and not others? It doesn't seem to be a time-dependent thing, as in, say, after the post has been up a day the edit feature disappears. It seems to show up sometimes and not others, completely randomly. I'll think I can't edit something and then *hey-presto*, there's the link to do so. I'll go back and it's gone; return and it's back.

Is this just me, a known bug, something I'm not understanding?

TIA.

It's time dependent -- there's a 2 hour limit.

But not always? I've gone to postings that are weeks old and seen the edit button? Anyway, thanks for the info; sorry I missed it elsewhere.

I've never seen the edit button on posts that are more than two hours old.
