Can't Edit Posts in Swap to Delete them...

I was going to Edit some posts in the Carseat Swap section and delete the whole thread since the item has sold, but it won't give me that option now??

They are not super old or anything and I only noticed this on threads I started not the ones I have replied to from someone else. It is only in the Carseat Swap not the Swap-o-Rama.

Anybody else missing the edit button on their threads??? Do I just need to PM Admin with a link to the threads I want deleted?

I thought we were supposed to just switch the prefix to "sold"? So the thread was saved for prosperity for others (when researching how a deal went with a particular person, researching prices, etc.). Although if you can't see the "edit" button, you won't be able to change the prefix either!

It looks like the edit button goes away after a certain period of time. I guess you have to report the post to an admin to make any edits or deletions after that time.

Yeah, just report it with a quick description of what you need changed and one of us will get to it

No need to delete, because then we can't use it for iTrader rep

Thanks everyone and I forgot about others needing it to use as reference in search or for I-Trader.

I have never figured out how to change the header to say sold instead of for sale.
