|

I know how to edit a post but the option seems to indicate that I can also delete my post if I change my mind...cannot find out how, though! Some guidance please ![Wink](modules/Forums/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif) _________________ Gee-Pee

Oh
Don't you ever get the feeling, "I wish I had not said/written that?"
When you point to the Edit button, It says "Edit/Delete"
Never mind, thanks for the response. _________________ Gee-Pee

The Edit/Delete button works thus:
You post a reply or create a new post. Until the post receives a reply you can delete OR edit your post. Once it has received a reply however, you can ONLY edit it. _________________ Darren Griffin |

That's what I suspected but, the post I wanted to delete has had no replies and I have tried to delete it without success. Perhaps I am doing something wrong. ![Question](modules/Forums/images/smiles/icon_question.gif) _________________ Gee-Pee

I had noticed the Edit / Delete tag before and when i tried a test i can't see how to delete a post as a user. Simply blanking the post results in
