# 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 organization's users have to change their messages after sending
|
|
them. Alternatively, you can choose to disable message editing for your organization
|
|
users.
|
|
|
|
{!go-to-the.md!} [Organization Settings](/#administration/organization-settings)
|
|
{!admin.md!}

|
4. Locate the **Users can edit old messages**
|
|
checkbox and **Message edit limit in minutes (0 for no limit)** input field
|
|
underneath it.
|
|
|
|
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 in minutes (0 for no limit)** - If you enable message
|
|
editing in your organization, you can restrict the time that organization
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
!!! tip ""
|
|
If you would like to disable the message editing time limit for your
|
|
organization, 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
|
|
**Save changes** button at the bottom of the **Organizations settings**
|
|
section.
