Default Edit post not working

I play some of the word games, and occasionally I need to edit my posting because I posted wrong, or missed a previous posting. I never had a problem with this previously, now it is not letting me do it. I hit edit posting, the posting disappears in the screen, but when I try to change information, it just makes another posting. What am I doing wrong?

also having problems with new postings showing after hitting post. I have to refresh my screen, where before, it just showed up.

Wondering if it is this forum or my computer

I think you only have a short time in which to edit a post, maybe 10 minutes?

Often I just post again with a correction. I'll hit the Reply With Quote and make a correction. easier for me. Doesn't take that much more time.

I am usually trying to edit immediately, or within a minute or two and the "edit this post" is still available. Just weird that I have been able to do it in the past.

Was there a recent update to this website? I know recently on one forum there was, but don't remember which one, I only remember trying to post one night and got a message that said something about an update being done.

could someone post a test and go back in immediately and see if they can edit? Thanks

I, too, am having problems with new postings not showing up after I hit post. I have to refresh my screen to see the posting. How do I fix this?
