The relevant code is here: https://github.com/nim-lang/nimforum/blame/master/src/forum.nim#L516.

Reading it I don't see what the cause of this could be. @narimiran any ideas?

Thanks for the quick reply! :-)

I don't know if it's relevant for reproducing the bug, but before the mentioned two posts I hadn't posted any message for over a year. Maybe there's a threshold of some kind that's not processed correctly.

I've taken a quick look.
I think my change of allowed time for edit didn't introduce this.

I think this code here should be changed to account for the elapsed time since posting and then don't show edit and delete buttons — fix in #316.

Thanks for the fix!

I still wonder why I couldn't edit the post anymore even after a few minutes. As far as I understand the code, the threshold is supposed to be two hours, isn't it?

This is something I didn't experience in my using of the forum, i.e. I regularly edit my posts after I submit them.

I believe you, but I experienced it nonetheless. :-) It seems there are additional conditions for this bug. If you don't want to invest more time in debugging this problem, I understand that, too.

Do you have any plans when to deploy the fix on https://forum.nim-lang.org ? If the new version is there, I'd tell you in case I run again into the "can't edit shortly after posting" issue.
