I cannot seem to find where the settings are for the default length of time allowed to edit your own post. Can someone tell me where that setting is located?
Thanks

You got me interested because you're correct in saying that a setting doesn't seem to be readily available to adust the editing time (timeout). It seems that Admin can edit a post without any restrictions, but you don't want that for general users. There is in fact an editing timeout limit in the forum and it's set for one hour (3600 seconds). It's located in /modules/boonex/forum/inc/header.inc.php It's located on line 20 in a clean install. You can test it easy enough by setting it to 300 (five minutes), then going to a test user account and making a post. After five minutes the edit option shouldn't work. Great question!
