Editing posts

[onrust]

So I've been wondering this for a long time:
Is it possible (eg for admins,moderators..) to see original posts that's been edited?
(example: I say in a post: "Aza sux balls" but then edit it to "Aza is tha best". Can someone see the original msg?)
(not necessarily on this site though)


Footnote: never try to be funny on a forum of your college. Fucking teachers are on there man.

It can be done. I know for a fact that vBulletin can do it; RelicNews would ban you if they found a warez reference in a post which you subsequently edited. I personally do not have the priveleges for this function, if it exists in phpBB3 - they are either at administrator or global moderator level.

Never post anything dangerous on a forum - the edit function will not save you.

What if posts are deleted?

phpBB3 is simply the latest coding used on forums and phpBB3 has things such as social networking integration. That's all i think i know about phpBB3.

About the deleted posts, the only way would probably be to have a cache within the FTP server of the forum holding every post created by the poster? Unless it was specifically made into the website/forum, the admin would have to go into the files to find the post.

I used to do web design and that's my speculation of how it could be done, feel free to correct me, oh mighty Google-users (that outrank me in willpower for clicking 'search').
