Thanks Jörg! And I’ll take that promotion!
Thanks for reading through it.
You caught me. It was getting so long I worried I was creating a wall of text that would just make people’s eyes bleed and I hadn’t figure out how to tackle explaining that part.
The intent is for you to edit the original post in your “@JT - User Video Index” topic. Editing a post won’t cause it to show up. If you add a post to your topic it will.
I put this part in to cover that but I haven’t figured out how to explain the intent to keep what you’re talking about from happening.
For this to work all updates need to happen in the original post. If people start adding posts for new entries instead of modifying the original post it’s going to become too messy to be usable.
Part of my concern with doing it this way is that, invariably, people are going to post replies in these threads. Which is fine, unless the updates also end up being posted as replies. At that point it will look like any other thread and this attempt at organization becomes moot.
Okay, I just had a thought.
@JoshFossgreen if you lock a topic, no more replies can be made. That would solve the reply problem. But, can the originator of a topic still edit the original post on a locked topic.
My first guess would be, No. But, if they can that would simplify some of this.
If a test is required, feel free to lock this topic and I’ll see what it will let me get away with.
