Editing threads.

I'm somewhat "rusty". In another thread, an article I was going to respond to seemingly disappeared. Have editing capabilities changed in the last years or so?

You can edit your own posts Bill. Maybe the member that posted the article changed their mind. If you want to let us know either here or by pm which thread it was I could check it out further for you.

Hope that helps.

How do we separate a post in a thread so that we can repost it elsewhere:wah:...oy vey....dunno how to do that:(

Sometimes I just wanna show a link to a post in a thread instead of linking the whole thread....:p

Hi Odie,

I don't want to just copy/paste a post. I want to separate the whole post from the thread and include your profile to repost.

Just avy and everything on the left side of your post...not the actual post.

It's been done before...I just don't know how to do it. I've seen Spot and Koan do this.

Hey You:-6

Where have you been Gman...I've missed you:p

Get you arse back here and start some sort of scavenger hunt thingy even if it's simple....we need a spark in FG....as only you can organize it.:-6

Thank you soooo much for the info, but it isn't working for me. I tried doing this on my laptop, which has issues, and on my desk top to no avail.

When I hover and right click my copy/paste ....you cannot highlight them.

Am I doing something wrong?

Hey Gman....

I know you've posted a thread ages ago about your "help tutorial" for posting problems. I don't know how to find this thread again.

Would you be willing to help us again,,,,,:D....and again:D.......

I'd love it if you resurfaced your thread:p
