Is there a way to correct our mis-typing or mis-spelling mistakes on MyLot?

If you preview your post before actually posting it, then you are able to read through or put a spell check on it and edit/correct it before submitting it for posting. This is the only way you can do it I'm afraid. It gets a bit frustrating sometime, when you see your post pop up with a glaring spelling error. lol Brightest Blessings.

There's no other way to correct a mistype word in myLot. You should have to recognize the word and manually correct it. That's one thing I don't like about this site. Sometimes I could see my posts with several mispelled words on it. Instead of friends, I usually end up typing it as frends. I hope myLot will solve this problem. We are not sure but maybe the next improvement on myLot is a spelling and grammar check.

After typing the response or introduce a new discussion topic, you should press preview button, so that you can do the correction of all sorts and then press SUBMIT. I generally read the matter and press once for all, the post response button.

Hi friend, i use my mobile for browsing Mylot. There is typing function in mobile that is T9 prediction. I always use this T9 prediction on. So there will no more spelling mistake will come. Only problem arise when use non english word. Thats really boon.

There is no edit feature or anything like that on myLot, but I use a Mozilla Firefox browser, which has an inbuilt spell-check, so perhaps looking into something like that would help you out =)

Me too...lol but there's no way to edit, as in if don't chech properly before you post then that's it. Anyways don't be so conscious about it, everybody knew if it is a typo error...members will understand as everyone is allowed to commit mistakes..it's not a perfect world. You can't go over and over to your reply checking for errors. time is gold.

This is one of my concerns too before because I often make mistakes. But too bad ther's no way to correct it even if I hit the stop button. Why don't you use Firefox browser because they do have a auto spell-check tool. When you type here, you could see some red lines that means wrong spelling.

I have been facing that problem as well. Sometimes, because of typing too fast, I created many typo error in my post Therefore I have to check carefully before I submit my response, so that I could avoid the spelling mistakes. It's tedious and sometimes, after checking for spelling, I still miss out some of the mis-spelled word. About one month ago, my cousin advise me to use firefox instead of internet explorer. Surprisingly I found that it has the spelling check function, and all the words that I mis-spelled appeared to have a red dotted underline beneath it. It's very helpful for to submit spelling-error-free response. But it doesn't have grammar check, so I still have grammar error. LoL!

I don't think there is any means to corect spelling in mylot. you have to check it yourself. It would have been better if there was spell check option in mylot.

althought its a very older discussion.. still i can't resist to answer it. i think you can use mozilla firefox browser to use mylot. you will be having spell chjecvk inbuilt there.

Sorry as per my knowledge you cannot do this and mylot had till now no such features to correct our spelling mistakes. We should post our responses with most care so that we should not make any spelling mistake because making spelling mistakes reduces our rating in mylot.

Quite simply - YOU CAN'T! mylot does a great disservice to its members by not allowing the author to at least edit their original discussions. The original author should also be able to delete their own posts if they so desire. Most every other bulletin-board on the net allows authors to edit and delete their own content! On mylot an author cannot add to their discussion until someone else posts a response. Once another member has responded you can add comments to your own discussion and try to clarify statements or correct typos.

I am new here. But I think I get the red color under the words when mis spelt, that helps. But sometimes when the spell check is not there - it gets difficult. Thanx friend for adding me.

unfortunately they don't have an edit feature yet but i do hope that they will put it sooner

I know its a old post but i just want to share my views about mis typing..certainly everyone around here in mylot would have faced this problem and felt bad when they see their typing errors after posting..most embarassing errors for me is those i do in typing the topic heading which reflects so badly when i see them and my face gives a blurrred look.. nowadays whenever i complete typing i check it for mistakes and correct them before submitting but eventhough some mistakes crept in while responding in a hurry..i think its unavoidable..

Unfortunately there is no way to correct the mis-typing in Mylot. It doesn't have this function.

Yea, by this time you could have understood that there is no way for correcting once it is posted, even though the preview discussion is available, most of us dont use the option. I have some times made typographical errors.. such as typing " FOOD HABITS" instead of " GOOD HABITS". Cursing why G and F are situated very near in the keyboard....lol...lol.. Think of a discussion where i have been discussing all the while about Good Habits, but i mis-typed it as Food Habits? What would the respondants think about this? Will not they be totally confused.. lol..) Do you started any topics like this by mistake..

Hi there again buddy. :) I also commit a typographical error too buddy william. :) What I did is to comment my response again and try to correct what was mispelled. But sometimes I seen my comment to my response was another error. Hahahaha! So sometimes I just leave it there as it was. hehehhehe I think our friends here on mylot may just understand it buddy so don't worry so much about it. Everything will be alright. See yah around. :)

No you can't edit or delete anything, well at least to my knowledge you can't.

Right now, i don't think mylot has auto-correct. All I am doing is check my comments first before posting it. But sometimes, there are still spellings of words that is left unnoticed. So, i still commit mis-typed or mis-spelled.
