Just Curious

I am just curious. Can a poster delete a post after there was a comment on it? If you can, where is that feature? Thank you.

You can delete your own post.only. Once a poster quotes you, it stays. (even if your original was deleted)

Use the 3 dots feature to delete/

I'm thinking that the OP is referring to deleting a thread. To that I would say that I don't think you can.

But you CAN report the thread (using the 'report inappropriate content' button on the left side under your name, post count, and all that), and explain in the box that you would like to have your thread deleted. HTH

@LilBitMissty, I'll add a couple of things in addition to @missy1's and @chickenbutt's helpful tips.

If we start a thread: If it has no responses we can click the 3 dots in the upper right corner of the post and use the "Delete" option to completely remove the thread. If others have commented, though, we can't delete but we can edit the thread title and the original post.

For our responses on a thread: We can use the "Delete" in the 3-dot menu if no one has clicked the "Reply" on that specific response. The only way to tell is to click the 3 dots and see if "Delete" is an option. If it isn't, we can't delete but we still can edit the post.

hth!
