Deleting Your Own Posts
A quick note to let you know that you should now have the ability to delete your own posts in the front-page forums. I think I finally got it working properly, so feel free to give it a test by responding to this thread, then deleting your post. If you run into any problems, please post a message in this thread...but don't delete it. :wink:
UPDATE: It would appear that a post cannot be deleted once someone else has responded to it. At that point, you can only edit your post. That limitation makes sense given the threaded nature of discussion boards - you wouldn't want people jumping into a discussion, making inflammatory statements, then deleting their own post and vanishing without a trace... :ninja:

It looks like we can't delete if there is another post. My post above yours does not have the little delete button anymore.

Aw nuts. Ok, in that case I guess all you can do is edit it. I suppose that makes sense in a threaded messaging system...

Didn't we have this functionality before? I distinctly remember seeing it shortly after the site switched (err, was coerced  ) to phpBB.
