Based on a quick test, it seems to only be visible to the owner and moderators/admins - but there is a chance that powerposters can see it (and thus previous versions) too.

I couldn't "browse" edited post from SI's link so I'm good with that.
Thanks.
You found that post fast! 1 point to Si ;)Quote:

Thanks for doing that, Atheist.
The linked "Last Edited by" is a new feature of 3.7.x which for members with permissions can view the Edit History of a particular post. Since I take it RB that you tried clicking it and getting nothing, then I would assume powerposters have no perms to it.
No, I can see all of my edits - I would be extremly unhappy if everybody else could browse all of my post edit history (except for mods).
I assumed he was referring to Atheist's post - can you see his edits?
I couldn't so I mentioned that in post #4. That's the answer I was looking for.
For Mods there's a Compare Versions button that let's us see what it used to look like.
It's there for the owner of the post aswell :thumb:Quote:

i love the new multi-quote feature, although it wasn't immediately obvious how to use it.
am i the only one who cant see this feature?
(edit)
What feature?
edit test
Last Edited by..." is a link on only posts that have been edited. Otherwise there will be nothing there. And if you mean the multi-quote its a new button to the right of the Qutoe button.
Yeah i am talking about the "Last Edited" I made a test post in the testing forum, and edited it a few times, and i didnt see any link.
I didnt even see "This post has been edited by..."
It should show when you have edited your post after some seconds has passed. Not sure how many seconds, probably a minute.
And it would be "Last edited by ...". See my previous post, I edited it.
There is a 3 minute limit. After the 3 minute time expires any edits after that will show the "last edited by..." link will appear.
i edited post 15 in this thread, and i see the link now. But in the testing forum, it doesnt seem to work.
:wave:
No it works in all forums. Look in the testing forums thread http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=562382 and make a post. Then wait past 3 minutes, edit it, save it and then click on your link. You do not have permissions to view the edit history of someone else's post which is probably what youre getting confused on.
Ah, see thats what was messing me up. I didnt know you had to wait 3 minutes, then edit it. I thought you meant edit it, wait 3 minutes, then check.
Its only within the first 3 minutes of making the post. After that it could be seconds between edits and it will log it.
At least now we can't deny we said something. :)
