I hope you don't get tired of hearing from me but here goes:  Recently my wife found the need to edit or add to several hundred posts on our forum.  She was really mad when it said this post was edited by and gave the time, date and who by.  Is there anyway that I can turn that off while editing as an administrator?
 
Thanks in advance

this is not an option in the standard install,

but not hard to eccomplish

in the message form (RTE and stanfdard message include files in the includes file)

when its not pm or new post, (strMode = "edit")

then add a checkbox, and call it /add mesasge saying dont display edit by

then on post_message.asp find the section that handles the edited by part mid way i think.

and add if CBool(request.form("EditBy")) = True then

add ' AND CBool(request.form("EditBy")) = True' to the if statement for it.


i have used this method on my support forum.


makee sure its for blnAdmin or blnModerator can only see it

you can turn off the edit by system all together yes from tha admin menu my method is on a per edit status.

so you can choose everytime you edit a post if to or not.

1.)  Well so far the edits are going well.  I still haven't tried to change the database to give me more character spaces for topics.  Sounds kinda scary if you can corrupt your database doing that however, I sure do need more room for both topic descriptions and user names (I have a few with 16 characters instead of the max of 15).  I know it can be done because these forum members belong to others that have no trouble accepting the longer names. 
 
2.)  Last but not least, I have seen several examples of webwiz forums with the advertisements stacked on the bottom instead of both the top and bottom.  I was wondering if there is a trick to setting them at the bottom.  I have no problem with the ads but I would like to have a bigger area for my header without corrupting the operation of the board.  Anyway those are the latest questions I have.  Keep up the good work. 
 
Thanks to all the team at Webwizforums.

Maybe the above question was overlooked?
