When you edit the first post in a thread this should let you alter the topic. If not, then it’s probably admin only functionality.
There’s no button to edit the first post…
Actually, i see one on my new post… so i guess it’s only for a certain amount of time. 🙂
You can edit your post 60 minutes from posting 🙂
Well, unfortunately, i realized that I have a mis-spelling in my topic title the following day (much more than 60 minutes later).
I meant “frozen” instead of “froxen”. Check it out:

Well, it appears a forum moderator must have caught the mistake and fixed it for me! 😀
But yeah, that’s the whole reason I was wondering about editing posts.
