BS Man about Palms Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 I was trying to read the latest posts and it seems to have disappeared. Surely it couldn't have turned controversial?

Robert Lee Riffle Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 I'm afraid so, Bill. There's a setting in the admin control panel that we didn't have in the old software. The setting allows (or not) for the originator of the topic to DELETE the entire topic! Who wouldda thunk?!? In the old version only an administrator could do such a thang .... I changed it!

spockvr6 Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 (Stan @ Jul. 20 2006,20:42)QUOTEThe mystery is why the rare palm topic guy got upset..... Doesnt RLR's post #3 above "solve" this mystery? The key words are ORIGINATOR OF THE POST. That means the person who STARTED THE TOPIC. If there were 1000 posts after the first one, he could still wipe out the entire thread. So where is the mystery? There's a setting in the admin control panel that we didn't have in the old software. The setting allows (or not) for the originator of the topic to DELETE the entire topic! Who wouldda thunk?!? In the old version only an administrator could do such a thang .... I changed it!

Stan Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 Ok ,again. Like i said, and how you put it-why did the originator delete the topic?...Is RLR saying he changed that NOW,so it cannot be done anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BS Man about Palms Posted July 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 I had heard privately from some that they had accidently deleted posts while "editing". Since I believed RLR would admit to something if he did it, I figured it was an accident at your end.

SubTropicRay Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 RLR, Perhaps the "delete" button should be left on reply messages. This way the string cannot be deleted but individual replies can be erased. Sometimes you post and have second thoughts. Just a suggestion.

Robert Lee Riffle Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 You're QUICK, Ray ;-)). I just changed that "parameter" a few hours ago. I did so because of the slight chaos we just had because of that ol' delete button. Here's a solution that might be just as good: one can STILL edit one's post and can change (via EDIT) the complete text of one's post, including wholesale change. Otherwise one can PM me and convince me to actually delete the post. The problem with this, of course, is that the follow-ups (if there BE any) might not make too much sense. Let's live with the situation a few days and see .... eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
