| A new feature is the ability for the forum administrator to designate a topic (group of threads) as being "wiki-style".
Any thread inside this topic has the following characteristics:
- Only one post per thread allowed - that is, no replies.
- Any registered forum user can edit a post - thus making it like a Wiki - where you amend a post to add further information.
- To prevent multiple simultaneous edits, once someone clicks on the "edit" link and is shown the editing page, no-one else can edit the same page, until the original editor saves it, or 30 minutes elapses, whichever is sooner.
- Standard forum codes apply - just edit posts in the usual way you normally would.
