 * Hi [@sflwa](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sflwa/),
 * Yes, but only when editing via the admin screen. Check the ‘Send Notifications’
   checkbox before clicking update and everyone will be notified.
 * Cheers,
    Vinny

 * Thanks for the quick reply – The issue I’m trying to address is that I have a
   message board on a site (we are migrating from a single thread system) with moderators
   who check messages as they come in – the concern is if someone edits their own
   post the moderator won’t know to review the updated content.

 * You can try limiting the amount of time posts are editable (like keep it around
   5 minutes) and have the moderators only approve content after the edit time is
   over.
 * You can get bbpnns to trigger notifications to moderators upon edit, but only
   with some custom code.

    Ok – Thanks – I’ll
   see – The “Moderators” are not approving each entry as they are more so just 
   monitoring the forum
 * I didn’t even realize the editing is limited to 5 minutes by default that in 
   itself may solve the issue.
