RE: Seven Compelling Reasons to Enable "Perpetual EDIT" for Content Creators

in #steem7 years ago

All good reasons. I just started posting on Steemit and noticed that I made a grammatical error in the title! That's bad. I tried to edit and low and behold, no such function. I typically type things fairly fast and most of the time am in a hurry. That being said I am bound to make spelling or grammatical errors. I have caught numerous spelling errors on some Medium articles and always message the author to let them know. These types of errors don't shine a favorable light on the author and we need to be able to edit at any time after posting.

Greetings, @irishmayhem, and welcome to Steemit!

Actually, my friend, a peek at your blog tells me that you should be able to edit any or all of the articles you've posted thus far?

Simply open the article, scroll to the bottom, and you should see a small "Edit" link towards the right. Click on that, and you should be able to change almost anything about your article, apart from the main topical tag...

However, you'll want to be quick about it - the ability to edit expires a week after you post...

In any case, Thank you for visiting my blog, reading this article, and concurring! I hope that the Steemit "powers that be" will remedy the edit issue...

Please stop by and let me know if you succeed at editing? And if you have any questions I can assist with?

Beautiful I just remedied my post. I am a bit sporadic when it comes to technical solutions. Sometimes I see an article and don't investigate further. Always in a hurry. I am still getting used to this format and didn't see the minute edit icon :) Thank you for the direction.

You're more than welcome. Glad to help. ;)
