Is the option to update (or not) the blog post when editing a blog linked forum post still avaialble?
I can't find the option now or a setting to turn it on. If there is no option what happens to the blog post when a linked forum topic is edited?

The options are there just as they were before. Generally you set whether edits should be passed through when you set the original lining options for a post. This was the same in V4. Unless I am missing something?

I probably didn't explain well enough.

After you have created a WP blog post and have it create a SP forum Topic.

Go to the forum topic, not the blog post, that was automatically created and then go to edit that post. There used to be an option to update/overwrite the blog post with the new edited/saved forum post.

Maybe I am missing something in the config that turns on the option in the forum?

I am not sure if it is even needed. Might be something that no one uses that often.

In the past, in almost all cases, when I edited a linked forum topic post I never changed the blog post to match the one I changed in the forum.

Maybe some feedback from other members here would be in order before looking to add it in.
