    Hello! Hope you can help. Not sure where to post this but I can't edit or delete my posts whenever I hit the "edit" button on my post and I just get a white screen whenever I do. Any idea what the craic might be?


    Thanks for you help!

    Using what device? Have you already emptied the cache?

    Isn't their new rules about people with under 50 posts editing their posts. I see TBL is over 50 now so if it is the case they should be able to now.

    It would be an explicit permissions error page then, not a white screen.

    My laptop. Not sure what emptying my cache entails.

    Next time you're at the blank screen, press ctrl + F5 to force a refresh.

    That doesn't seem to work. Has it got something to do with the amount of time I've been signed up?

    No, the signup time/post count limit only applies to posting links, not editting posts.

    It seems when I go write a post, I don't have the options of emoticons or the option to post links or images...basically the toolbar that was above the box to write the post in is not there. I also can't quote other posters' posts properly either. Any ideas?

    Hi Spear. It looks like it's working now, so thanks again for your time. You can lock up the thread! :)

    Did you change or do anything though?

    No, just started working properly on its own sometime this morning. Didn't change or adjust anything in settings (it was working just before I read your post with the link to edit options). Could someone have adjusted it for me?
