   I'm curious - perhaps a moderator can answer.

   Why would my posts be closed? I've posted a couple of questions, nobody responded, when I try to update my posts with a fix i've found it tells me that the topic is closed.

   If I try to update to resolved it says topic does not exist.

   I don't think I posted anything against forum rules, and i'm pretty sure i've posted in the right areas.

   Is there a time limit before I can re-post or update the post? If not, could someone tell me what I'm doing wrong so I don't keep doing it?

   You are being caught by the Akismet filters. As we volunteers have time, we release them. Your patience is welcome :-)

   Ahhhhhh!!! I spent HOURS yesterday trying to figure out why my posts were automatically being closed, the exact same problem that mcorkum is having. I created new accounts, everything, and it just wasn't working. I'm having the same problem again today. Chris_K, can you please give me more information on what's happening? I'm not seeing anything in my posts that could be considered questionable. Is it my email address that is trapping my posts? Did something happen there? I ask because I created two new WP forum accounts, one with the same email as the account that wasn't working, and a third with a different email address. The third one worked.

   This forum is so essential, I would like to make sure that I can use it when I need it - I worry that if my posts take hours to show up, they will be buried and then I won't get replies to my issues (not to mention, the quicker someone can help, the better! :))

   Thanks in advance for any help (I really hope you SEE this reply, as I'm sure it will get trapped, and not sure when it will show up!!)
