Hey Everybody!
I have been trying to find this particular issue, however I cannot seem to. I have it set so my users can edit their own comments. However, I would like for it to state in the actual comment itself when the user edited it. Like a time stamp of sorts. So, if user A is reading a forum thread they can see in the comment posted by user B that the user B edited there comment at this time etc. I have downloaded the module "comments edited" but it doesn't seem to show it in the comments so everybody can see it. It only seems to be a behind the scenes type of thing.
I also have advanced forums, not sure that really matters here but most of the threads I read people seem to like more info then less.
I have the latest version of drupal and everything is up to date.

iirc, with the comments_edited module seeing the message is permission based-- just give the desired role the appropriate permission.
I have the comment module and
I have the comment module and the role permissions set to edit and view edit, but it doesn't seem to show up in the actual post.. Like if I were to go back and edit this particular comment I am making now, I would like for it to say in this same message window that I have edited this comment...
i.e. Deluxe edited comment on 11/25/2009 00:30

That's exactly what it does-- just not when your logged in as user1. Try it with non user 1 accounts. It works fine.
Yes I know this, hence why I dowloaded the module.
I try to explain in detail and give examples for those who might not understand what I am talking about.
Sadly, I did have already tested with replies, for more then one user. I have three test accounts for different roles and access. I used all of them to reply to the forum post and I edited all of their comments (user there account not the main account) to test it to see if it might be a role problem. None of the test edits showed it had been edited.
I also tried it in different forums thinking it was the role or permissions set out in the forums. No matter which direction I took to eliminate reasons why, nothing seemed to fix the issue. I have also noticed users editing their comments and it did not state it for them as well. I am able to figure out from the recent log entries that somebody has edited a message, but that is becoming a hassle.
The permissions I have set are for each role to view comments edited. I have also given permissions with each selection comments edited provides one at a time to see if I had the permissions wrong. It still didn't work. The only thing I can think of is that another module is interfering with it. My next step is to disable one module at a time to see if that is the case. After much process of elimination I was hoping I missed something simple but that doesn't seem to be the case.

No clue what the problem could be-- i just tested it again. All i did was install the current version, and create and edit a comment with a regular user account and the info shows up at the bottom of the comment-- exactly the way you want it. Maybe post to the module's issue queue.
Will do, Thank you for you
