Set timelimit before member can edit their post.

[Aceman]

I'm looking for a hack that will allow me to set a timelimit (X minutes) before a user is able to edit a post their created. Vbulletin as it exists, only allows you to limit how long AFTER a post is made that a user may edit their own posts, and how long after the post that the "edited by: " message appears on their post.

I would like the ability to limit a user to 5 minutes before they are able to edit their post, this will put some accountability into what people post because they just can't edit their post before a mod/admin can respond.

It's already a feature of vbulletin to set a limit before 'Edited by <user>' appears...

I think it's in vb options in the Admin CP.

no... he wants the ability to edit to start after a certain amount of time... not the words edited by
