Admins and Moderators need an edit thread/post option

At present, all HB users can only edit threads and posts that they have made themselves. However, Admins and Moderators do not have the ability to edit other user’s threads and posts.

One of the key responsibilities of Admins and Moderators is to ensure that all community users are posting content that meets with the culture and code of conduct/anti-harrassment statement of their community. When a member posts something that is a violation of the community rules, or may contain a small element that is deemed inappropriate or unsafe for other users to view, Admins and Moderators do not have the ability to edit that content as necessary.

The only options available at present are:

• The entire thread/post (including all replies) has to be deleted, which is unnecessary if only one word, a phrase, or an image/link needs to be removed/amended and the rest of that thread/post has value to others;

• Or a DM needs to be sent to the user explaining the issue and asking them to edit their own post, which results in a delay whilst waiting for action to be taken, and risks other users viewing that content in the meantime.

Providing Admins and Moderators with an edit option in the three dots pull down menu of each thread/post would enable content to be moderated quickly and appropriately, thereby removing unnecessary distress or risk to the rest of their community.
