Hello,
Scenario: a visitor comes to my site, reads my article, posts a comment, than realizes that has committed a idiotic typo in the comment, wants to edit that comment to correct the typo.
Can one do that in K2 commenting system [K2 v2.6.8], as it is possible in any normal commenting system component? I can't see that possible, went through all options, but can't fine that one.
Thank you.

If a regular user was able to edit his own comment then he could easily post spam links without the moderator knowing out. As you see this is a huge risk.

If the user is registered and belongs to the proper K2 User group, then the user can moderate/edit his comments. You need to publish a mod_k2_user module to make it easy for such users to find that link.

Yet most regular commenting systems allow own comments editing, even Facebook's, because people tend to commit ugly typos that need to get corrected.

Posted to his own articles only, right?

Facebook uses its own authentication method so that is not the same case as here.

And yes a simple user can only manage his own comments.

All registered users on my site are verified manually, there's no threat of spam posting in comments, so it is not good that registered users can't edit their own comments. I think it would be good to have this feature optional in next K2 releases.

Registered users can edit their own comments/posts if they have the correct permissions from the front-end.

Even comments posted by them to other users articles (not their own)?

It can be done if they belong to a higher user group.

I would want all regular registered users to be able to post and edit their own comments to other users articles, i can create a group specially for that and move all registered users there. Could you please tell me what permission options should i use for that group to accomplish that?
Thanks.

Sorry for bumping the thread, but you seem to know the solution to my issue, could you please pay a bit attention to the upper reply . Thanks a lot.
