You know you can edit your posts, and any diagram that is in them, right?
I don't think you can, I'd have to do it all over again, and it took me a while the first time, stubborn_donkey very helpfully put up the right one anyway.
You click on FEN/PGN and copy the content to the clipboard then paste in notepad so that you have a copy.
Then you can edit the post, add a new diagram, put in the PGN position from the clipboard or copy from notepad and then you can edit the new diagram, delete the old one and submit the changed post. Make sure you keep the backup in notepad until you have finished the action.
not the longest ever, but a fun mate in 24, that you can actually do in your head ;D
Yeah, pretty basic stuff...mate in 290 :)

( Above you can see the longest mate which was ever composed - it is my mate-composition with mate in 552 moves from the year 2015 )
Dr.Otto Blathy (1860-1939) specialized in such problems. They were his kingdom! He has composed mates in 137 , 214 , 265 moves , etc. I read somewhere that he composed a "mate in 342" but I still haven't found this one!!
Where did all the bishops come from... And mostly on black at that
Here my worldreord from 2016 : Mate in 553 moves

Very nice puzzle I found somewhere, detailing the longest checkmate problem I've yet seen, by Otto Blathy in 1860.
You can checkmate in three with Rd1 Bd4 E4 Kd6 E5 Kd6 C4#
[COMMENT DELETED]
You mean four.
Shouldn't the longest problem just be from starting board position?
for your information - have all a nice day with my chesscompositions : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bqnq580ozAI
At the moment ( August 2020 ) the longest forced mate is this one in 555 moves :

Who can compose a longer mate ?
In one of my games that I won, the analysis showed that I had a mate in 52...
