A tiny issue, but I'm curious how the forum software works. In the first post of this thread:

> [@"Split field by separator" doesn't work using \_ALL as field](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/split-field-by-separator-doesnt-work-using-all-as-field/68782):
>
> As the title says. Doesn't work in v3.29b nor v3.30 for me, i.e. nothing happens. (I would think that this isn't a safety precaution to avoid splitting the wrong fields? Since \_ALL is present in the default field listing for this action.)

it's indicated that I have edited the post twice. I'm pretty sure that I didn't edit the post, let alone twice.

Could it be that thread operations by a forum admin affect the edit count of the first post?

You can see the reasons/actions undertaken for a post if you click on the pencil symbol, in this case the edit is related to the folder change from "Bug reports" to "Fixed bugs"

Yes, thanks. It's a little weird that it looks like a post edit when it's a thread edit by admin.

If it's important to show the edits, they should be accurately presented I think.
