I saw your post =) What I want is to allow edit for a limited time (say 5 minutes or something). But if there is an answer to the post it should not be possible to either edit nor delete.
well.. the mod I implemented stops the delete and edit function immediately. That's ok with me, but I would like the users to be able to edit their posts for a few minutes instead of posting again with their edits.
From what I understand it wouldn't be so hard to make a statement like:
if dateofpost > now - 5minutes then deny edit else edit ok end if

What I posted lets admins set a time limit for editing posts and replys. I believe that if a post has any replies it cannot be deleted except by a mod or admin.
And I just updated my post with deletion time limits. It uses the same time limit as editing. There's not much to it, so it shouldn't be much trouble to test it and see if it's what you want .
I have to go to work right now, but I'll check back later.
