There are times when I forget to quote someone on a post and when doing so there is no delete icon on my previous post. I end up editing the old one with just a smiley face and creating a new post with the quote.

I'll look into it when I have the chance. Probably a permissions issue.

I believe the delete button is available until someone tries to reply to the post. If you forget to quote someone, you can always use the quote blocks around your text.

Code: Select all

[quote="makryger"]Hi, I'm makryger.[/quote]
will yield
makryger wrote:Hi, I'm makryger.
Or you could do this:

Code: Select all

[quote="Scarry Larry's Cheeseburger and Ice Cold Beer Stand"]Hi, I'm Scarry Larry, and I have a cheesburger and beer stand.[/quote]
