Editing of messages is great for correcting typos, clarifying
|
|
|
|
|
language, etc. However, sometimes a message is edited significantly
|
|
|
|
|
after others users replied to it, in a way that makes those original
|
|
|
|
|
replies no longer make sense. For this reason, Zulip displays
|
|
|
|
|
messages that have been edited with an EDITED tag, and users can
|
|
|
|
|
[view the edit history of a message](/help/view-a-messages-edit-history)
|
|
|
|
|
to easily understand what happened.
|
|
|
|
|

|
If in your organization, you'd prefer that users not have access to
|
|
|
|
|
message edit history, you can disable message edit history for your
|
|
|
|
|
organization using the following steps:
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
2. Disable the the **Enable message edit history** checkbox under the
|
|
|
|
|
**Message editing** section.
