    Editing a Topic

    I had to edit one of my posts and the edited content only shows up if I am logged into the site. If you view it not logged in you don't see the update. Is this correct?

    No once you update it it is visible to all. Maybe you have to totally close the site and re open it without logging in.

    If all else fails read the Service Manual!

    If that fails, meet me at the pub and we will discuss it.

      Interesting. I have tried on multiple devices and the edit only shows if I am logged in. Will upload a screen shot of what I see in a min.

        There may be issues with the site as I am experiencing various issues which have been confirmed by other European members.

          Yeah, I saw your post about site response times. It may indeed be related.

          Here is what happens with my post:

            I just logged out and opened your post. The update will not show attachments to non registered guests, so you were correct but not understanding to see pictures or attachments you have to be registered and logged in.

              Yes I understand that images do not show, that is not the issue.

              When you are logged out, can you see the text at the start of my post that is in bold with the word "Edit" at the start? In my screenshot you can see that when I am logged in there is a whole new paragraph of bold text that I added above my original post. When logged out it does not show up.

                  Like the old American Express commercials used to say "Membership has its privileges."
