We seek him here
We seek him there
The edit button's not everywhere
Sometime's he here
And sometime's he's gone
Andy! Dave! What's going on!

He's not showing on my posts either - apart from on the eco parenting section.

Strangeeeeeeeeeeeeee

edited to add - that he's showing in this section too

you have to be logged in to see it.

It's still not always there - I have that problem, too, and have mentioned it several times when I couldn't edit. I thought it was just certain topics that didn't have it.

I'm always logged in - and noticed that it wasn't there the other day. Odd....

off to bake some bread, cakes and biscuits..... back later.

That is very odd, will have a look to how it is set up and see what I can do.

I think it's the situation in several sections of the forum, though I can't always tell now I'm a mod. I'm guessing that you might need to set certain preferences to allow people to edit their own posts.

As someone who is not a moderator I can state with all honesty that I still observe a X symbol in the far right of each of post that I am responsible for. I've since added an avatar (since all attempts tp upload my own were rejected, thanks to all for the advice: Muddy et al/.
I've noticed the problems but there doesn't appear to be a pattern (for example the other day I noticed that a particular avatar has been restored then days later it's disappeared. It seems to attack at will...)
I don't know what's happening with Hedgewitch but I'm getting that Alien + Plant avatar through loud and clear since the server change, although access at sometimes is a bit slower.
My input anyway.
BTW I've just edited this article thanks to dyslexic fingers.
And again, I simply give up on the italics thing.

I've noticed this before and so has Ina. If you do a search for the key words EDIT and INA you'll come up with a few things where Ina asks why she can't edit.

I don't know if it is in one or two particular sections or whether it is random though.
