This is a follow up to my Changes Coming post:
As I'm working on the full version 1.00 production release of Bloo (the public-domain object oriented blog software that powers this site) I've decided to start streaming new features out to Thinklings and Out of the Bloo, rather than making these two blogs that I webmaster wait for official releases.
Some of the features coming out will be stuff you've seen elsewhere, others will be more unique. The feature I just rolled out may or may not be unique to Bloo, but I've not seen it elsewhere.
We've all left comments on blogs that we regretted, either because of grammatical mistakes, poor wording, or the fact that we shouldn't have written what we wrote. Mea culpas and corrections work, of course, but wouldn't it be nice to just be able to edit your comment?
Of course, if you're a Thinkling or Honorary Thinkling and have a login and at least Poster privs here, you can do so. But guests are out of luck - or were until now.
I've turned on Guest Comment Editing. Now, when you leave a comment, you have five minutes to edit or delete your comment if desired. You will only be able to edit your latest comment on the blog. (Note to Bloo Bloggers: it's an optional feature and you also can control how many minutes the Guest editing is enabled after a comment hits the blog).
Hopefully this will help our guest commenters feel the wind in their hair a bit more in their blog experience here at Thinklings.
Very cool for the guests. Good job, Billboy.
