user cannot edit his own question

Hi,
an author created a question. but there is no link show up for the author to edit his own question.
If i enabled the edit permission for Author in DW backend settings, then he can edit ALL questions, which is not ideal.
I thought by default, a user is able to edit his own questions, did i miss something?
I can provide logins if needed, in private way. thanks!

and even the user is an Author, the role label beside question says he is “staff”, seems wrong

Hi,

You can copy the code in the file Template.php at wp-content/plugins/dw-question-answer/inc/

Thanks Kevin.

is it a bug? would it be fixed in next release? cuz we i modify the Template.php, the change would be overwrited by update next time.

Hi, Can you please provide me the same code and name of file to paste the code? User should be able to edit-delete his own question, answers and comments only. My code is on localhost only and not hosted yet.
