In general, users can edit or delete messages / comments sent in Stackfield.
Note: Individual functions may not be available due to the settings of the organization and/or your assigned role! If you don't see the options, contact the responsible admin.
Further Options:
Procedure
Only one message / comment can be edited or deleted at a time. This is possible by clicking the "More" button (represented by three dots) on the right side of the message / comment and selecting the desired option.
Note: If something has been deleted, this is irrevocable, so it can no longer be created afterward.
![Edit / Delete a message]()
Tip: With the "up arrow" key on your keyboard you can immediately "retrieve" and edit sent messages / comments. This allows you to quickly correct missing or incorrect information and typos before they end up with other users.
Opportunities for admins
Note: Settings on organization level have priority over settings on room level!
Organization level
In the organization settings, an admin of the organization can determine whether messages and comments may be edited / deleted later. See tips for organization admins for more information.
Room level
In the room settings, an admin of the room can determine whether and which (all or only the own created) contents* the users may edit / delete (via the assignment of a rights group). If the room settings for the messages and comments collide with the organization settings, a note appears in the rights group in the detailed view (click on the "Show" button) under "Communication". See tips for room admins for more information.
*Content: Messages and comments, as well as other elements such as tasks, discussions, documents, etc.
