Hi,

How can I prevent the "Edited by user" from being displayed in a a topic?

Thanks,

There is no forum setting for this, but you could maybe hide it cosmetically with CSS..

In your theme.css file, find the editedinfo class...

If it's not there, add it as shown below. Otherwise edit it so it looks as below.

.yafnet .postfooter .editedinfo {
	display:none; 
} 

Hope this helps.

Thanks for your reply.

It did not work, but I found the class name is probably different in my version. So I just changed it to

.yafnet .postContainer .MessageDetails {
    display: none; 
}
and it worked.

Thanks for your help ๐Ÿ™‚

Yep, you are right...

I took a closer look and found that this is what did the trick for me to separate the "Edited by" from the message text with horisontal spacing and make it less "intrusive"...

It was some year(s) ago, so please forgive me for not remembering it 100% correctly today... ๐Ÿ˜

.yafnet .MessageDetails {color: #505050; font-weight:normal; font-size: 9pt;padding-top: 30px;}

I have just edited the theme.css files in version 2.1.2 and it doesn't seem to work. Any other suggestions?

Would you please make this as an option so it can be permantly disabled?

I agree with you that it should be a configurable option if possible. This option existed in the old Snitz Classic ASP forum software I used before moving to YAF.

One way to not show the Edited By is a setting in the

Administration ยป Host Settings

Post editing timeout:

Number of seconds while post may be modified without showing that to other users

I've set mine to 10,080 seconds.

Hi

You can also put the style within the code

Insert this lines at the beginning of "/page/posts.ascx"


<style>
    .yafnet .MessageDetails {
        display: none;
    }
</style>

...and it's done!

In YAF 2.2.3 it will be possible to hide the Edited By Message via the host settings.

It has been realized, don't know in which version, but you can find it under:

Host Settings -> Display -> Show Edit Message
