Hello,
I am really struggling with how to do this and need some help please ?
I am using Safari browser on Mac, log in, go to "Your content" by clicking on my name, then "Your content", select the post, and that's where I get stuck.
I can edit my posts, I have an option above first post with a drop down with More Options, Create poll and tickbox with Select for moderation, but cannot find any way to edit the title and change the For Sale to (in this case) Withdrawn.
Can someone advise me how I can achieve this please ?
Thanks in advance
Simon

Thanks WULF - that's the option that I'm missing, when I click the three dots, I get more options with create poll as the only option, there is no edit thread option :(

mine seem to have an edit button at the bottom of the post, next to the report button, It was in the edit screen I found the header changes.

Thanks lou1661, that option only lets me change the post within the thread, I have no option to change thread header as per WULF's post

You should be able to change any of the text, and also select the blue For Sale in the top left and pick the Withdrawn option from the drop down menu?

Okay, I have changed that thread prefix. No word from Admin. I tried using a Mac and it worked the same as it does on my PC. I have had problems where I had selected multiple posts on different threads, and the system got confused about what I could and could not do. I do not see in your screen shot that you have ticked any posts though. Very strange.

Hi,
I'm having the same issue.
In the 3 dot drop down all I get is "create a poll". No other options.
This the second time I've had this issue. I can change the text, within the thread, nothing else. Otherwise I'd change the header to "now sold" at the least.
Infuriating.
I couldn't move the sale elsewhere in the forum either.

I've changed the thread status.
No one can move threads so that's no a problem. I'm still not sure why you can't change the status though...

Yeah, it's annoying.
The only "option" I have is "create a poll" which I clearly don't need to do!
Can you find out what's going on please?

Yeah, I agree it's annoying, I've looked at it a few times to try to work out what the problem is, it only affects a few people so it's very hard to pin down what's causing it, the permissions have all been checked multiple times and there's no conflicts.

We will continue to look into it, apology for the inconvenience until we resolve it.
