Where can I disable the post edit notification for all users. I don’t want users to get a notification when a moderator or admin made a little edit on their posts. How to disable this for all users?

You an turn it off for you under the ‘Your Admin Options’ panel. As to your members/users they do not get such notifications. Or at least I believe that is the case.

I already turned it off for myself (admin) indeed. But normal users in the “members” group also get a notification like this when a moderator or admin has edited their post.

They do? I wasn’t actually aware of that. So – I can find nowhere to turn it off but I will check with Steve who wrote up that feature.

I wasn’t aware of that too, until the site went live and normal users contacted me, asking why they are getting these notifications :D

yes they get notices of the edits – that was the original intent of the functionality… but there was intended to be an option to disable the notification to users… but I dont see it anymore…  almost as if it got added to the admin options instead of rather than in addition to…

will open a ticket to get it back in there…

Ok, please let me know when a fix is available, I am trying not to edit many posts right now :D

will likely be in the next release of SP…  the code change will likely be too involved to post here (will touch multiple files)…  no ETA on the next update…

Any update on this or an ETA? There are new members still asking me what the messages mean :D

Well we do not yet have a firm cut-off date for what will be a 5.2.3 update but as some of the items in there are getting to be quite important then I can assure you it will not be that long now. And this feature will be a part of that update.

Ok, thanks! Is it disabled (removed) then by default, or should I disable it then in options?

I believe you will need to set it when you get updated.
