In our environment we like to keep some forums for advertising news so we are working a lot with edit post in these to keep the number of threads low. In the Infopop Community Forum Rick works in the same way in his changelog
Rick's changelog for 6.1 . We find it very useful to show edited posts as new in this case, otherwise you always have to check the post for any edits.
So we changed the modifypost.php to handle edited posts just as if they were new posts (indicator icons are updated etc.). So far this hack works fine for us but is not thoroughly tested. I attached a comparison of the original modifypost.php (Version 6.0.2) with our modified one. Only the relevant parts are shown, the added modifications are on the right side, shown in red.
For our needs it would be useful to alter the handling of edited posts to this way in future versions of UBB.Threads, but maybe we are the only ones who think so?
