Often, posts are modified for various reasons such as typing errors. By default, SMF gives permission for all members to edit the posts that they have made, and moderators will be able to edit everyone's posts, including their own.
There are two methods of editing a post, the Normal Edit redirects the member to a posting page where the edits can be made. Quick Edit allows the member to edit the post inline, but the interface for Bulletin Board Code is unavailable. Bulletin Board Code will need to be manually entered into the post.
