    Hi,

    I can't edit or delete posts even immediately after I post.

    I can click the edit post button, but it brings me to a blank screen, with seemingly the correct address in the address bar. I'm using Chrome if that helps.

    50 posts and 10 ten days membership is the minimum for being able to do a lot on this site. E.G. edit posts,post links.

    This is a known issue and is being looked at by the boards.ie technical wizards.

    I'm having this problem too, on Chrome. I can edit in Safari, but not in Chrome. (and I disabled my AdBlocker too.)

    I'm having the same issue. Is it related to me being a new user?

    Thanks.

    25 posts and having the same issue. It goes to a white screen. There is no message saying it's due to being a new user. I think it could be a technical issue.

    Yes, it's a technical issue, I experienced it myself last month when a new member, until I reached the required 50 posts.

    No message related to it being a new user, as it's a fault, and as per Shield's post above ' is being looked at by the boards.ie technical wizards.'

    There's been a few other posts asking the same thing, including mine when I was a new user: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=94881406

    You need to be at least 10 days old and at least 50 posts.

    Edit: to be clarify 'your account' needs to be least 10 days old, but you personally :P

    Okay, thanks. I'll just have to wait it out.
