Can you hide it?

The only way to delete anything on here is to ask GN administration to do it.

They won't even let us have an edit button here, let alone a delete one.

Must think we are too old to be able to cope with such things!

Is it your thread? Or just one you posted on?

I don’t think you can remove those, just post on more til it’s out of your view?

Hmm - it’s mainly ones I’ve posted on .It seems strange to keep them there when the thread is out of date.

There's a button at the top left of the forum front page that says 'Start a new discussion'. Just click on it and up comes a box for the title and one for your opening post.

you can t delete them Atqui unless there’s a problem then you have to ask HQ to delete it but you can’t just delete threads ad lib

I think Atqui isn’t asking how to delete threads … I think she is asking how to delete them from the category ‘I’m on’

On Gransnet the threads drop off the list after a while , keeping it tidy smile which I like .

It takes a month or so after the last post on a thread for it to drop off. If I could delete after, say, two weeks I would participate in more discussions Are you LISTENING Admin at GN? There, I'm stuck on this for a month hmm

you can't delete a thread,, if you want to delete your post on a thread find it on 'i'm on' and on your own post click report and ask for your own post to be deleted.

They won't always do that. I told a well-known family tale on a thread then thought better of it and asked for my post to be deleted but no.

I asked 4 or 5 times and explained why but no-one at GNHQ took any notice at all, no response and the post was still there.
