Yes, click on the title of your blog and you will see on the top right corner.  Edit- Share-Action.  Click Edit.  Once you finish editing. scroll to the bottom of the page and select update.

Just a note...when you edit on a blog/post, etc., (your’s and/or someone else’s)...You must go to the original post to do the editing...you can not do it when looking at it through messages...hope that makes sense Exvape

Can you edit using a phone - e.g iPhone?

[CommunityAdmin · Accepted solution]

You can.  The option will only appear in landscape mode(on its side) and depending on your browser you may need to select desktop mode.

Here's a screenshot:

Let me know which blog it is and I can give you the direct link to edit to make it easier on you.

Yes this is correct.  You cannot edit in the inbox you must go to the actual post.

Root post has the edit button as shown in my screenshot.

Comment posts have an Actions > Edit  dropdown.

Thanks! I don’t see it on my phone—-it’s just the obsessive compulsive part of me that wants to fix typos when I spot them.

 Exvape I tried with my iPhone...say I typed a reply to someone’s post...and entered... then it gives me on my phone the option to edit on the bottom of my response. However, on a post I wrote it doesn’t give me an option to edit when using my iPhone...

I am not computer savvy so if I don’t make sense...please let me know...you are helping me to learn along with you...lol....Colleen

I saw the same thing —I can edit some responses...but can’t edit a blog.

not a problem...I’ll just try to proof my posts more diligently to prevent annoying typos.

thanks again!!
