Hi again

Sorry, I should have also asked my new question.

How do my users edit their posts once they have posted them, can they delete them, make changes to them?

Thanks
Hey Alex,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. Are you referring to EasySocial? If the user posted a status update (text) on the story form, they would be able to edit it by clicking on the arrow icon as you can see here, http://screencast.com/t/gzn3JRPaTd9x

Hi

Thanks for the reply, there must be something I am missing then, because my arrow icon doesn't show edit.

Hello Alex,

It is actually a correct behavior as Easysocial don't allow editing certain stream item such as photo post.

How can a post be deleted?

And why can't all posts be edited?

Are these features available on the new update? I haven't installed it yet.

Hi Alex,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply. Please find my answers from your inquiry below.

How can a post be deleted?

You need to allow certain profile types to be able to delete stream item by going into your backend > easysocial > profile types > ACL > stream, http://screencast.com/t/uV7hKVTZN . If set to "Yes", user will be able to delete their own stream item from frontend.

And why can't all posts be edited?
This is to avoid unnecessary issue with stream formatting when a user decide to edit a stream item such as photo stream into a different stream such as status update only.

Are these features available on the new update? I haven't installed it yet.

Easysocial 1.4 has the same behavior as easysocial 1.3 where it will not allow certain stream item to be edited such as photo stream.

Hi Guys

Thanks for getting back to me, I don't seem to have the ACL page on user profiles

Please take a look at the attached screen shot.

I have included my access details if you need.

Thanks

Is it possible though to have a stream with a photo and a comment, then later go back into it and edit the words from the comment?

As a non admin you should be able to edit your photo comment from the stream. I tested this successfully on my end.

Hi Alex,

Ah It seems like you are using easysocial 1.3.30. In ES 1.3.30 the options is called "Access" instead of "ACL". Please have a look.
