Hello Hurd and welcome. I'm afraid you will just have to wait until one of your posts shows up. When it does, do not try to edit it. If you need to change something just make a different post. These inconveniences will all go away after just a few posts, when approval is no longer needed.

Hi there,

and that's always a critical thing: If you edit your post while there's already a follow-up (or even several), there's always the risk that some reference (maybe even criticism) gets lost in empty space because the original thought is gone then.

So my advice is: Do not edit a posting in terms of contents. If you wish to fix a typo, improve the wording or rephrase a sentence for better clarity, that's okay. But if you're about to change the contents ... don't do it. In that case, better post a follow-up.

hi,

I agree with you, but in some forums, you are asked to edit rather than "repost", routinely I did like this.
