We hope you enjoy using our new social bar and take advantage of the new features.
All good news.
Is there any way to allow for a 5 minute “edit window” on posts so that we can clean up syntax or spelling typo’s?

@BobRyan: I’ve added a plugin that should allow you to edit your comments up to 30 min after you’ve made you comment.
Try it out and let me know if it works.

Shane –
When I try to edit the post – the screen goes almost dark … I tried waiting for 30 seconds or so – but it is just stuck so I hit the back-key.
I see the timer for the edit window – but apparently it does not let me edit. It is possible that my browser is blocking the plugin.

You need to add a close button to the tool bar, so those who do not want it can just close it and have a choice.

@John: Due to no response/action in over two weeks, I just added http://cdn.wibiya.com to restricted sites in my browsers security.
No more annoying toolbar.

I like the editing option. Sometimes I want to change something after I’ve posted. Thank you Shane!

@Shane Hilde: Shane, Yes I know/knew about the minimize option. What I was concerned about was not just minimizing but closing so it was not running on my system.
I added it to restricted sites so it just doesn’t load to begin with.

What is your environment? I have IE8 and cannot get the edit feature to work. Anything I click on that page just ends it.

I just tried the edit option with this reply and get the same blurred transparent black screen; pressing back took me back to the original submit page with my previous text still remaining.
