 |
|
O.K. call me st_pid but I can not delete a message. I know its trivial but I used the test forum to get my avatar picture set and I can not delete the test message! In most other forums like this that I use there is a delete option in the edit function. But I could not find it. Am I blind or what??? HELP!!!
L.P.  |

L.P., That is the way it used to be here to delete too. It threw me for a loop, the first time I wanted to delete one of my messages after the change.
Now, on this forum, to delte your message:
When looking at your message, look in the left corner. By edit, you will see a box with an X. Click the X.
You don't have to go into edit here anymore.

Thanx for the reply crazywoman!! But I do not see any "x" in the field or entire screen with my message! I like to clean-up after myself but it does not seem that I am smart enough to manage that in this forum!! Oh Well!!

Well now. As I look at my post before anyone has replied I see the "x" that you mentioned. Is there a way to delete a post that has already been replied to?? Or is that a task for the administrator only?

L.P., I wasn't sure on that one myself. I looked it up in the help (found on the navigation bar, far right).
It says you cannot delete your post once someone has replied to it.
I didn't know that.
I think that the administrators & moderators can possibly delte them after they have been replied to.

I suppose it's set so that only moderators can delete... it doesn't matter though, the test room automatically deletes messages after 7 days.

Hmmm....... Didn't know about the test room automatically deleting after seven days. That's neat, cause after all it is just for testing.
But that must be new with the newly designed site. |

just a note, email or PM me if you need something removed that you cannot. Include your username and the post URL.
