SharePoint 2010 Bulletin Board - User can only edit their post - sharepoint

I need to create a bulletin board in SharePoint 2010 and ideally we'd like people to make posts but they should only be able to edit their posts and not others.
Is this possible at all?
Also if anyone knows of any off the shelf solutions (not necessarily with the above mentioned edit abilities) that I could trial please let me know.
Thanks!
Dan

Worked it out, in advanced list properties you can set an option to edit only your own posts however where I was going wrong is the UI still shows the edit option but you get an "access denied" message when you try and save....Great

Alert User when someone replies to their post - SharePoint 2013 Community

I am looking for a solution to a very standard concept. In most social communities, there is a way for a user to be alerted if someone responds to something they posted. However, I am not seeing a way to accomplish this in the SharePoint 2013 Community Site. Need some assistance. Is there a way to accomplish this?

You can only alert on an item if it changes. There is no OOB way to alert on a response to an item.
You can set up alerts on the list for new items but not for specific items (other than changes to that item).

Lotus Notes : User form over email

I am going to organize a team event at my workplace.
I want to call in team nominations for the same.
However, to make the mail interesting, I want to design the mail in such a way that after the usual descriptive content, there should be a form and a button with various fields.
For e.g.
Team Name:
Team Leader:
Member1:
Member2:
Member3:
Submit Button
So, the receiver fills these fields with relevant details and on hitting the submit button, I receive a mail back with the nomination details.
Can someone please tell me if this is possible in Lotus Notes and if possible can someone guide me to a simple example somewhere on the web.
Please note that I will not be able to do Notes Scripting. So it there is some inbuild function to create text boxes or user forms similar to button functionality available, then I want to be guided with that.
Thanks for reading.
Yes, this is possible, and it is quite easy, if you know how to do it.
BUT: You will most probably not be able to do this, as you need the Domino Designer to achieve what you want. If you HAD the Domino Designer, your question would have been more concrete, so I guess you don't have it.
If you want to try it: Get The Domino Designer with the right version for your environment, install it and try working with it.
The most current version of designer can be found here.
The Domino Designer Help will be a good starting point for you, but without a training or at least somebody who shows you the basics, it will be not possible for you to achieve what you want.
Almost forgot: If your admins did not give you the appropriate rights in the Domino environment, then you will not be able to bring your code to the server, and that means it will be very hard to distribute the form to the users.

QuestionAdding a 'Flag as Inappropriate' flag to comments on a SharePoint blog

I am sorry if this has been asked before, but a google search of stackoverflow didn't find anything relevant.
We are about to pilot blogging within our organisation and as part of compliance we require every comment left on a blog to have a link associated with it for users to flag the comment as inappropriate.
My thinking is that this link could simply change the comment's status from approved to pending and possible send an email to the approvers to go and check it.
By default we need comments to not need pre-approval.
Could anyone please explain the different ways of achieving this? Is there a way of achieving this using SharePoint settings (i.e. no code)?
i think you want to have approve/reject only when users flagged/report that comment ..
it is possible to do with sharepoint designer without any code or coding
you should define a workflow that if creator same as modifier approved automatically and when someone edit or flagged as blob ... change that item status to suspend and workflow not fired. because that condition is not true. and modifier and creator different people

Sharepoint: How to handcode a content type?

How can I hand code a custom content type, and with all its fields.
If you know of a step by step guide.
My whole plan to extract a content type, and reuse it , has gone sour (no surprise there, after all we are dealing with MOSS).
I guess I would like to know how to do it completely by hand, so that NOTHING can go wrong.
Thanks ( please help before I get even more furious with sharepoint).
Apologies if I haven't already mentioned this before, but have you read the various "Getting started with SharePoint" questions on the site? These will give you good pointers and hopefully ease your frustrations:

Customize accessdenied.aspx in Sharepoint

I have a web in Sharepoint 2007. I have sites with permission for certain roles. When a user with a role that has not got permission to enter the site, Sharepoint redirects him/her to accessdenied.aspx which has Sharepoint design.
How can I change this redirection so that it goes to a customized one? I don't know if the server will be shared with other Sharepoint webs, so i don't dare to edit accesdenied.aspx directly (i have not verified if i can anyway).
I would need precise code and indications, because i am no guru of Sharepoint.
I wish I could offer you more in terms of precise code, but this website seems to have pretty clear instructions.
Hope that helps.
Check this article for the issue you face when you create your own custom access denied error page and solution proposed in my post.
