Re: Delete
Try again. Seems you have to leave at least one character in the post (I chose an asterix!)Miro wrote:You can't delete the post as such, but you can delete all the text in it so it's just a blank post. Click the edit icon in the top right of your post (it looks like a pencil), and then just delete the post by backspacing through it, or highlight the lot and hit backspace.

Re: Delete
Just pm me and I will delete it. I do it all the time with duplicate posts. Alternatively, edit it and remove the post and replace it with “please delete”

Re: Delete
TBH most phpBB forums include the [x] button, which allows the author of a post to delete it. This is useful where a duplicate post is accientally made, or an author has had second thoughts about making a reply.
Really not sure why we don't enable that facility. Where a slip-up occurs, I usually just reduce to post to a full-stop, and leave it to the Mods to delete it. As said, you can't make a blank post.
