Thread: Double post please delete

This problem appeared yesterday, usually the system blocks double entries but it seems that it has failed. Deleting the second post is not possible....

Deleting posts is never a problem, just report the post to the moderators using the "Report Post" button and tell us what you want.

Otherwise just edit your post, click on the delete check box and press delete, you have to do this within 24 hours.

I can't seem to see a delete option / checkbox in the advanced edit mode.

Is it me or am I blind?

Me too

When you open the edit window, there are four buttons. "save" "Go Advanced" "Delete" and "Cancel" when you press "Delete" the window extends downwards and there is a check box "Delete message" which you have to click then press "Delete this Message" to delete the post. IIRC you have to do this within 24 hours.

At least that's what I get.

Otherwise just report yourself.

I don't think the delete option works once somebody else has replied...

Or maybe it's only special people like us who can still see it!

No joy - I posted in another thread and tried to delete straight away. I saw "save" "Go Advanced" and "Cancel" but no "Delete"

I mustn't be special enough
