Click the three dots at the bottom right of your post, there will be an 'edit post' button, Enjoy!
So excited thanks @MNHQ

Wow only 25 previous threads telling us the sane!

We've been asking for this since I first joined in 2014!

OK that's MN cracked.

Now let's see if we can get the Guardian to do the same with their comments section.

They should put a banner maybe across the top? Do we get updates for site stuff?

And your post is actually worth less than any of them.

Thanks OP, I wondered why I saw a couple of posts saying edited earlier and juts thought MN had done it and not put in their usual disclaimer

Yellowpotato · 23/08/2023 21:01

Ohhh. Not sure about this. How many hillairious mistypes will never now be left? E.g. snapped and farted would never have hung around so long or given me the huge laughs it did with an edit!

PangoPurrl · 23/08/2023 21:01

Absolute professional lurker here, in my many years on Mumsnet I've rarely felt the need to post on a thread, but crikey, exciting!!

...and it works! Yassss!

As this is such a big new feature I was thinking it might be useful to put a banner across the top of the page maybe?

But if more people use it hopefully people realise and click on the edit button to see what it is

Don't worry, the edit has a time limit ;)
