Some tools facilitate engagement between members of your community. As such, participants can contribute further on some tools after their original submission. This includes commenting on other users' posts, editing their submissions, or reporting contributions to the moderators.
Editing functions for tools with open participation are limited to the user's initial session time (generally 30 minutes) unless the participant has logged in. Additionally, some editing functions are removed if the contribution has comments from other users.
The only tools that users cannot change after submission are the Survey and the Questions tools.
