Following the recent updates, and as we continue to consolidate the groups, we've made a few improvements. 👍
[b]Improved Edit Post options[/b] 📝
We used to have separate "Edit" buttons - one for changing the Title of the Post, and another to edit the Body of the Post. And if you wanted to edit the Type/Mood of the post, you had to first press to "Edit" the Body, and only then you could see the "[u]Edit Post Type[/u]" button, almost hidden.
To simplify that, now there is only one [b]Edit[/b] button, which is located at the top-right corner of the post:
Which opens the following 3 options:
[b]- Edit Post[/b] Edit the title, the body and the rating level of the post. [b]- Edit Post Type[/b] Change the post type/mood of the post. [b]- Move to Group[/b] Move this post to another Group or Category.
[b]Move Post to Group[/b] 🛸
To help you with fixing mistakes and to better categorize your posts, we are now allowing users to move Posts to other Groups/Categories.
If you press [b]Edit[/b] located on the top-right corner of the Post, you can select the option [b]"Move to Group"[/b], which will present you with the following screen:
Please note that it's possible to edit the Post Type and Group/Category only once per post.
Moving a post to another Group/Category does NOT bring the post to the top of the Feed.

Could you make it so that there won't be an "edited" watermark, after editing a post or comment? I don't feel like it's needed, and I always end up deleting and re-uploading, instead of editing, because of it.
@Sheer The reason we show whether a Post/Comment has been Edited, is a bit to avoid abuse of that feature. For example, if someone makes a post asking if people like to travel, and users reply "Yes", and then the post is edited to say something really bad/illegal. At least there's a public timestamp to show that the post has been edited after those replies.
The edit history isn't public, so there shouldn't be much of a reason to delete the post to post again.
@Nuno I understand, I just feel like very few people would actually do something like that, and when I saw it happen on other forums, it was always apparent to everyone that the user had just edited the post.
I understand that not many people have this issue, but because I have OCD (I am actually diagnosed) a lot of SW's features makes it hard for me to use your site. I also delete and re-upload posts because when someone leaves an unnecessary comment, and delete it, there will instead be a message saying: Comment deleted.
To name another example, when you commented on another user's post, and they blocked you afterwards, you were unable to delete your comment from their post ─ I don't know whether this is still the case.
[c=666666]By the way, last mentioned is why I created so many profiles in the past (because that comment will be shown in Replies forever). I never tried to hide my identity, or anything of the sort. I never really cared much about the communal aspect of your site, as I just want to use it to share some of the things I write, such as short stories and personal experiences. I realize it's probably difficult to empathize with the issue I have, but I kind of just wanted to let you know my reasons. 😅[/c]
