Topic: silent edit for users?
Ive searched and the only thing I saw was to make silent edit the default. Is it possible to make silent edit on for users? or is there a switch Im not seeing? right now admin has a box and users dont.
Re: silent edit for users?
you would have to edit viewtopic.php and remove the section that outputs the "last edited by..." part
Re: silent edit for users?
I would change edit.php to offer the checkbox and not update the edited time, then you won't need to change viewtopic.php.

I tried the Gracemod plug-in twice but it does not seem to work here.
I checked *very* carefully several times that I edited correctly according to the instructions... but still the same message appears "edited by". I'm using PunBB 1.2.14.
Re: silent edit for users?
It's by no means graceful, but...
comment or delete the following block of code from edit.php:
if ($is_admmod)
{
if ((isset($_POST['form_sent']) && isset($_POST['silent'])) || !isset($_POST['form_sent']))
$checkboxes[] = '<label><input type="checkbox" name="silent" value="1" tabindex="'.($cur_index++).'" checked="checked" /> '.$lang_post['Silent edit'];
else
$checkboxes[] = '<label><input type="checkbox" name="silent" value="1" tabindex="'.($cur_index++).'" /> '.$lang_post['Silent edit'];
}comment out or remove the following line from viewtopic.php:
<?php if ($cur_post['edited'] != '') echo "\t\t\t\t\t".'<p class="postedit"><em>'.$lang_topic['Last edit'].' '.pun_htmlspecialchars($cur_post['edited_by']).' ('.format_time($cur_post['edited']).')</em></p>'."\n"; ?>I believe that should work.
EDIT: oops, I misunderstood you. Ignore this.

The Grace Period mod only works for a short time after the message has been posted.

Thanks, that can be handy.
However, I still want to use the functionality of Grace period. In my tests I tried editing about 15 seconds after the post was made. It was set to 1800 seconds grace period.

Re: silent edit for users?
edit the bit of code pogen posted and replace it w/ a hidden form element named silent w/ a value of 1 or edit the isadmmod if statement & comment out the if and braces.

My mistake; Check out the mod readme now, I fixed something.
