As I log in to the forum this morning I noticed that one post / reply is posted, or so it appears, on all categories. This is a post which has been made about 10 hours ago by one of my members, but as I click on the response, it takes me to only the one post he actually responded to. Yet it still shows up as if it has been posted at the same time on almost all categories. Bug or glitch?

It seems that the member posted the same in all categories. Yet I can't edit the post, had to delete it. I can't edit any post as I used to. What gives?

If I'm understanding correctly he referred the single post across multiple categories. We've built this original feature in so that people can contribute to a thread from multiple entry points.

Our policy is that admins can delete and move posts, but they cannot edit another members post. (An admin can edit their own post though.) The idea is you can remove content, but you can change somebody else's words.

In the past, there was a bug that allowed admins to edit any posts, but we fixed that, sorry about the confusion.

That's the one. One post hogs up all categories, which is a nuisance. If there would be a way for the administrators of the forum to keep a handle on that, that would be great. I don't want to edit the posts or their contents. Just want to be able to either delete them if they are hogging up all categories, and them being gone for good, not even showing in the categories anymore after deletion. Also, I'd appreciate if there is a tool where the admin. can move posts from one category to another if they are in the wrong place.

Thanks!

hey Kaiman, you can move the posts from one category to another. Above the title of the post, next to the category, there should be an 'edit' link, if you click that, you can move the category. Soon, we're gonna move that feature to the 'more actions' drop down menu.

let me know if you are having trouble finding it.

I tried that feature, but nothing ever happens. The screen gets that gray overlay, but that's it.
