For 30 minutes after you post a reply or post a thread, you have the option to edit or delete your post. After 30 minutes it is locked and you will need to request a Moderator to make or enable any changes.

I'm not great with computers either, Mick. The 'like' button is at the bottom of the post, just above the 'quote' button. Once you click on that, then a statement is added at the bottom of that post that you liked it.

Mick, the button automatically shows up on all of your posts-you can't see it because a member is not allowed to "like" their own post, but the other members can see it and click it if they chose. :O )
