The Movie Database Support

What is the point of having a preview button if you can't edit your post before submitting it? We have to hit the submit button and then go to the settings icon to edit the post. Doesn't make any sense.

No, you can edit it before submitting. Just hit the Preview button a second time to enter edit mode again. You can do this as many times as necessary until you're happy with the last edit. Then submit it.

Thanks PT. I didn't know we had to hit the preview button again (although why the extra step?). That wasn't clear.

I kind of thought it made sense, since it's the only clickable link in the "tools" bar. But, maybe Preview could be change to "Edit" when you're in preview mode? thinking I don't know if that's very pretty though,,
