the pre v5. themes where showing the number of times a post had been edited as well as the name of the user who did the editing and the date/time when it was last edited.
this is important in an older thread, where one would go end edit the first psot in a thread to update or correct so people looking at a long thread would immediately see that a psot was edited/by whom/when
since I am currently trying to modify/customize the css-only theme (a copy of it that I renamed) I'd like to know what php code snippet I need to show that.

IF a post has been edited then it should show up as a little pencil icon beside the post number. We used to get many complaints about showing the information within the post so moved it to a popup. Do you not see this?

I found it. An way to get it back as it was? My users are asking for this feature 🙁
I searched your code and couldn't find a function that outputs this info (the editing history) is there one?

in the topic view functions, the template tag is sp_PostIndexEditHistory()...
so find that template tag call in the spTopicView.php template file... and then replace it with your code to display the edit history... $spThisPost->edits contains the data and you can look in the current template tag for how to handle the data...

can I ask you for more help? I suck at this 🙁 I can do some basic php editing meaning I can fiddle with wordpress plugins and themes but these SP themes look a bit different to me.
original theme code snippet:
sp_SectionStart('tagClass=spPostContentSection', 'content');
sp_PostIndexContent('', __sp('Awaiting Moderation'));
sp_SectionEnd('', 'content');
say I wanted to output the text you see when you click the view edit history button straight before this line: sp_SectionEnd('', 'content'); what code would I need to insert there? I think it is an array, containing those edits, but I have no idea how to output its contents 🙁

You know something. Both Steve and I have been stupid here! I just checked the code - which I should have done when you first asked - only to find that I had already coded this to be displayed the old way if required!
Fine the call to sp_PostIndexEditHistory() in your topic template and add the argument '&popup=0'.
Of course you will need to move the position where that function is called to get it out of the post 'icon' section and into the 'content' section.

Great.
Off though. I was smart enough to code it that way and yet dumb enough to forget I had done it!

sorry, one last question: the current code:
sp_PostIndexEditHistory('tagClass=spButton spLeft&popup=0', '', __sp('<span class="edited">Edited by %USER% on %DATE% </span>'), __sp('View edit history'));
does show all edits. can I modify it to show only the last edit?

:faceplant:
forgot myself we had allowed the option for not in popup...
I do not see a way to limit the info to the last edit... looked at code this time 
I know we used to do that, so we should probably support it now too... but it should be doable without an explicit template tag argument...
problem for me now is I cannot get it to show (or save) more than the last edit... so need to do some research...
