View Full Version : [FIXED][3] Show the 'Edited by xxx on yyy' when a post is edited for mods

Hey,

Currently when a super mod edits a post, the 'Edited by xxx on yyy' thing doesn't appear for them.

Now, I wanted to change it so, well, it did.

I can't find the option to do so though :\

The only thing I can find relating to it is:
Show 'edited by' for admins?
If you want the [edited by xxx] message to appear when an admin edits a message, select yes here. This message will appear automatically for all moderators and other users, but using this option you can optionally turn it off.

But this only appears to apply to admins.

What am I missing?

Super Mods are considered Admins for this purpose and are governed by this setting.

ahh, ok then

Could that be considered a bug then? I mean, just in the note it has there, it's kind of misleading at the moment...

Not a bug - a design choice. :)

yeah, I know it's not a "bug", but it really should say something more like:

Show 'edited by' for admins and super mods?
If you want the [edited by xxx] message to appear when an admin or super mod edits a message, select yes here. This message will appear automatically for all normal moderators and other users, but using this option you can optionally turn it off.
as it says "all other users", it kind of makes you think a super mod is one of these "all other users"...

This has been moved to a User Group setting in vB 3.

You're right. It should be clarified. I'm not sure what else you're looking for. :confused:

I want it to be considered a "bug" and for an entry put into the CSV updating the text for that option and for it to be included in vBulletin 2.2.10

It's not a bug - it's a bad description. Nonetheless I'll put this into the Bugs forum so a Dev will see it.

Yeah, I know it's not a bug, but it needs to be put in a place where a dev can see it.

Thanks :)
