Yes.

You do this through your AdminCP panel. Look at the screenshot.

That's not it,  I thought post editing

How i can prevent user to edit him post  for only 3 minutes (or 1 minute or 2 or etc..).
As this time runs, he will not be able to edit his post he who he wrote.

Understand me ? :-) Thanks

in admincp
click
1: users & groups
2: then, groups
3: click OPTIONS of a group ( Registered for example ) and select EDIT  GROUP
4: then, click FORUMS & POSTS tab.
5: then, scroll down to EDITING/DELETING section and SET the time to what you desire ( 20 minutes in screen shot - set higher or lower )
6: save settings

Now, I do.

You were not clear on your 1st post, but what v_2 posted is correct.

Yea, it's in there...

You'll find it in the AdminCP → User Groups → Select User Group → Forums & Posts tab → Editiing/Deleting Options

You must have the 'Can edit own posts' box checkmarked for the 'Edit Time Limit' function to work.
If that box is NOT checkmarked, it will not make any difference what number you input in the 'Edit Time Limit' function because that 'Can edit own posts' box is turned off.
So its possible se it ? I try it.

Thank you

So i test it, is there this option and works.
