# Restrict editing of old messages and topics
|
||||
|
||||
If you are an administrator of a Zulip organization, you can easily change the
|
||||
time limit that your realm's users have to change their messages after sending
|
||||
them. Alternatively, you can choose to disable message editing for your realm
|
||||
users.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Click the cog (![cog](/static/images/help/cog.png)) in the upper right corner
|
||||
of the right sidebar.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Select **Administration** from the dropdown menu that appears.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
3. Upon clicking **Administration**, your view will be replaced with the
|
||||
**Administration** page. You will be located on the **Organization settings**
|
||||
tab by default.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
4. In the **Organizations settings** section, locate the **Users can edit old messages**
|
||||
checkbox and **Message edit limit in minutes (0 for no limit)** input field
|
||||
underneath it.
|
||||
|
||||
![Message editing options](/static/images/help/message-editing-options.png)
|
||||
|
||||
By default, user message editing is enabled for 10 minutes after sending.
|
||||
|
||||
* **Users can edit old messages** - Uncheck this option if you wish to
|
||||
disable message editing. Upon doing so, the **Message edit limit in minutes (0 for no limit)**
|
||||
input field will be grayed out.
|
||||
|
||||
![Message edit limit grayed out](/static/images/help/message-edit-limit-gray.png)
|
||||
|
||||
* **Message edit limit in minutes (0 for no limit)** - If you enable message
|
||||
editing in your realm, you can restrict the time that realm users have to
|
||||
edit their messages. Simply input the time limit in minutes that you would
|
||||
like to set; for example, if you want to set a message edit time limit of 5
|
||||
minutes, enter **5** in the field.
|
||||
|
||||
![Message edit limit for 5 minutes](/static/images/help/message-edit-limit-5.png)
|
||||
|
||||
If you would like to disable the message editing time limit for your realm,
|
||||
enter **0** in the field. This enables users to edit their messages whenever
|
||||
they want.
|
||||
|
||||
5. To save any changes you have made to your organization settings, click the
|
||||
blue **Save changes** button at the bottom of the **Organizations settings**
|
||||
section.
