When you edit a post long enought after you posted it that its flagged up that you edited it and when, the word 'by' is now coming up AFTER the name instead of before.

 

i.e. it says "last edited Extremely Fluffy Fluffy Thing by today at [the appropriate time]

So are we not using the word "by" anymore then?

It's automatic Renton if you edit after the time limit

But not allowed otherwise?

I don't know what the exact limit is, but I know it's a hell of a lot longer than C4

Well let me tell you > > > *points to you*

 

I shall *steps on soap box* be using the words "by" "bi" and "buy" but not necessarily in that order, whether you like it or not!!!

*Shouts back and heckles* as long as you use them in the correct tense that's fine by me

Wots it ever done?

Renton, you appear to have picked the post up incorrectly, or you are trying to wind us up.

 

On here you can edit your post at any time. However only a certain amount of time is 'free edit' and it will not be flagged up that you edited. However, outwith this 'free period' if you edit your post it will have an 'edit stamp' automatically added. Before the last update it was stamped at the top right, now it is immediately under the last line of your post.

Before it said'Last edited by [name] at [time]'

 

now it says

 

'Last edited [name] by at [time]

 

I'm not saying ban the word 'by', I'm just asking for it to be put back to the correct place.

*accepts the cup gratefully* Thanks, Veggie. My head is spinning.

 

Fluffy, thanks to your edit above, I can now get a screen shot for my report. This is what we call a wordlet issue.

(Don't *I* sound all developer-ish?)
