of the site. You can even set a time limit for how long activity posts should remain
editable.

styled automatically by BuddyPress to fit with your theme.

 [Hayward](https://profiles.wordpress.org/haywardgb/) November 24, 2019

Youzer have recently disabled this plug-ins ability to work with their plug in installed.
I would urge the developer of this plug in to speak with them and ask that they 
don't block plug ins like this. I would give higher star rating. But will change
when I can use it again!

Could you update this please? I really need this functionality for my site. The 
top-level comments are editable, but on all replies the edit button doesn't give
a field to edit. It shows the Save/cancel buttons like it is trying, but no field
appears.
