Discourse bot editing "full quote" posts

Just discovered if I start writing a post in reply to a specific person, I can no longer change it to a post responding to the thread in general without deleting the entire post and starting over. Which setting changed that?

Looks like it works fine to me.

This is what I get:

Only happens if you’ve actually started writing a post, mind.

@Belthazar I tried it on mobile and it worked fine. :man_shrugging:

You’ve never been able to change who a post was targeting when editing if that’s what you’re trying.

Nah, changing who a post is targeting is easy - I just need to push “reply” on a different post while I’m writing.

What I’m talking about is the pull-down menu under the arrow in the top left corner of the edit box which lets me change it to “reply as a linked topic” or “reply to topic” (i.e. remove the targeting altogether). I used to be able to do the latter while in mid-post, but now I just get the dialogue box above. I confess I don’t know precisely when that change happened.

This topic was automatically closed 365 days after the last reply. New replies are no longer allowed.
