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?

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>

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.

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)

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.
