Topic: Edit a review Posted: June 17 2005 at 05:24 |
I repost my question in the bug forum here:
Editing by simply re-posting is blocked now. I get the error message:
"A review for this album already exist with the same email or IP
80.184.182.249." How is editing now possible? My mails to the admin and
moderators have kept unanswered.
Sure, a review can be written as it should be in the first place. But improving or error deleting should be granted.

DRBR,
you can't edit your review as such, what you can do is overwrite it with an updated one by submitting the new one with the same name and e-mail address. |
but I know your name, and maybe even your email adres, can I replace
your reviews with mine, if I would like to (you made one 2 star review,
I would like to see changed to four stars, if you don't mind)

As I see it: nothing
The Progarchives seem to be built upon an elder database driven
technology without needing a password and a login to write into the
database. Correct me if I'm wrong. This forum here is based on a newer
and better technology.
So it's maybe better to delete this thread before the word gets spread? A lot of crazy people on the Internet.

PP,
I believe if you simply submit the review again using the same name
and e-mail address, it will update it. There are other threads about
how to insert a paragraph break. The two most effective seem to be
either to use <p>, or to hit return twice for a new paragaph.
Welcome to the forum by the way! |
Yes that works for me, the double-enter for paragraph breaks doesn't work for me, so i always use <p>

I would like to edit my post as no paragraph breaks have been set while transferring from the form to the progarchive review.
Is an edit possible?
