Is there anyway we can edit out posts after a certain time? I just had to bring my classified up to the top to list it as sold. Other sites allow me to delete it without bringing them to the top. Just a suggestion.

Hi Anthony, there just doesn't seem to be any way for us to allow full editing in one forum without it affecting the others.
If we open it up to everyone then some guys will delete older posts in tech topics that then make all the replies look senseless.

I just tried a test - members can now delete their own threads. If or until someone messes this up we will leave it.

Here's hoping it works as intended.

Thanks Al. That should work just fine. I just hate to bring a classified ad to the top just to let everyone know it`s sold.

So how does one delete their own thread?

I can not figure it out.

Thanks

Sorry, this is currently a supporting members (http://www.chevelles.com/membership/) only feature. That usergroup has the delete permissions.
