Facebook Finally Lets You Edit Your Comments Anytime

By Daniel Ionescu, PCWorld Jun 22, 2012 6:45 AM

If you every made a typo in a comment on Facebook, you can now go back and fix it. The social network has started rolling out a feature where you can edit your comments on posts and view the edit history, something that should arrive for most users over the coming days.

Up until now you had only a very limited time window to edit a comment. Just a few seconds after you posted, if you pressed the X to delete the comment, you had the temporary option to edit the comment for any reason. Perhaps you made a typo or changed your mind about what you said.

Now, this option becomes a permanent fixture without a time limit. You are allowed to go back and edit any comments you have made on posts on the social network, whether they are from today or last month. When you hover over the top-right corner of your comment, you will now see an option called ?Edit or Delete?.

If you click Edit, you will be allowed to make changes to the comment, add or delete words and so on. This is much more useful than the temporary editing capabilities you had so far, as it allows you to go back through your timeline and edit any comments you made. It?s also more useful than deleting a comment altogether and then reposting it, which would otherwise prompt a notification for those involved in the thread.
