Editing posts - am I doing it wrong?

So I'm working on a pretty extensive restoration and I've been posting the details in a thread.

https://www.woodworkforums.com/f27/wo...-advice-204501

Problem is I posted the first update and then made a quick edit to remove some excess line spacing and then the post disappeared from the thread once I clicked save. There was a 3rd post I'd made with another quick update so I figured i'd just put all the info from both posts into that and then once I finished editing THAT post disappeared from the thread.

Are they in some pending approval queue or am I doing something wrong?

Although you have joined the forum some time ago, your number of posts mean that your posts need to be approved by a moderator. Until such time they are approved they will not show up.

Great, figured it would be something like that. Thanks mate!

When you have a query like this you will get quicker attention from a moderator if you click on the Report Post icon (the exclamation mark) at the bottom of a post.

All moderators get an email for that report and the first one to see that will act on it.

If you post a question in the forum it may take some time for a moderator to spot it.
