How do I edit a post on this board?

You can edit a post within 10 or 15 minutes after it was posted.

If within that timeframe, there is an Edit selection available at the bottom right of the post.

This is not available when posting with an iOS device.

Actually it's just not available when using Safari. All the controls show up in third party browsers like iCab. It appears that the forum software disables certain features based on what your browser identifies itself as.

As pointed out already by dylrob, it just does not work with Safari. I rarely use Safari. I downloaded iCab Mobile and I can edit, format, use the emoticons and do so many things on this site that you cannot do with Safari.

You must identify the iCab browser as a desktop browser in the settings in order to use the edit feature, but it works well on this discussion site if you want to edit your posts. It has many more features than Safari has so you might want to check it out in the app store.

So we pcannot edit a post on an APPLE support forum using APPLE'S browser?!? {sarcasm on} Good job, Apple...

Apple didn't develop the forum software. It's by a company called Jive.

Apparently, they're about the only company that makes software that will handle a forum of this size.

I prefer iCab Mobile to Safari for a number of reasons. The fact that it gives me access to editing forum posts is just a bonus.
