Michael, I just found the setting to increase the time for editing or (I think) deleting a post to one day. Before it was set to one hour. So, as of now, a person has a day to change or (I think) delete a post!

OK. I checked it out and there is now a delete button where there wasn't one before. You're doin' good, Scott! You'll soon have all the little quirks taken care of! ;) Thanks for your hard work! :fav18 (Feel like a I need a cheerleader smiley!)

Betty, can you point out where exactly that button is?

Ha - glad it worked okay. It is kind of challenging to know what other people are seeing. I see the forum as one with moderator's authority, so some stuff I see other's don't.
I guess I had better run over to Wesley and tell Michael that I have answered his question. He commented there that forum questions aren't being answered here, but I responded here not long after he posted.

I'm sorry. I cannot find a delete button. Where is it exactly?

I understand it is an option of the edit button.

Betty, how about doing a screen shot of where the delete button is so Michael can verify whether or not it is there for him.
There is a chance that posts done before I changed the setting don't see the delete button and those done after do see it.

I just started a new thread. My new post does not have a delete option. Maybe there is a setting for each user to make that option available.

Michael,
So when you click on Edit, you don't see the following?

OK... trying to figure out how to do a screen shot here. As soon as I get it figured out (haven't done it in forever!), I'll post per Scott's request.

Thanks Betty -- but I think it has been figured out. If you start a new thread you can't delete it, but if you respond to a post, you can come back and delete it within a day.
One of the little tricks we had to figure out about this software!

Oh, OK. That seems sort of dumb! Well, I figured out how to do the screen shots now, so if you need me to show something else, let me know. I'll try not to take so long to get around to it!
(Edit: For anyone wondering, this was supposed to be a reply to Scott's last post. I am sure it shows up directly underneath it, but on the tree, it looks like I am responding to his first post. We have lot to learn!)
