I want to be able to edit my comments

Everyone can make a mistake... as well as users who post updates. If I misspelled something, or want to change something in my comment I should be able to do so.

I would also want the edit to include the ability to add additional tags. We often forget to tag users before hitting submit.

This would be great, even if it was only for the first 5 minutes after a comment was posted!

I voted. I also agree that edits would need to be tracked or done immediately so that someone doesn't fully change the update/comment.

@Tegwyn, to upvote, go to the top and click on the little blue up arrow to the left of the title.

where do we vote? I often have to copy and past from several areas of a project to provide vendor information etc and it would be so much easier if we could edit the update....as opposed to leaving it hang or deleting and re-copy paste. I def agree it needs history and I also don't think every user should be able to....at least admins and possibly planners...then I'd want it to work like changing a "commit" date ...idk... and request to edit be sent...?

I'll vote yes- first I've seen this or voted for anything...not sure where to go!

I agree with both Linping Sun & Alana Coble. I would vote on this only if it was limited to a quick time frame, 1-2 minutes, so that we protect our system of record. Also, we really need the Audit trail of all changes before this was considered.

I would like this change but with system tracked updates.

I agree with this, and that we need an audit trail THAT WE CAN REPORT ON.

And it should be configurable by sysadmins - to turn on or off.

I would vote for the idea with the condition if the system tracks the edit, and updates is only allowed within the immediate time, e.g. 1 minute or so. This is to protect system of record while help with the mistake from fast typing, which people usually realized right after the "send".

Hi it would be great to have the ability to edit comments. Current if there is an error, the user must select all, copy comment, delete comment with error, paste copied comment and correct error.
