Help with settings and posting

[Aflaaaak]

Hi, I'm fairly new to AC and so far really like the site . I like the way it navigates, the little User Control panel in the top-left corner, the choices to leave people Likes or Thanks, and how many Forum choices there are. The number of knowledgeable people using the site and short time responding to questions/comments really makes using the site very useful.

I'm only having trouble with a couple things - first is how to set the subscriptions/notifications of responses to posts to "Email Instantly" by default, instead of having to remember to select it each time I post. Is there a way to do this?

The other question is how to delete a post, as opposed the only way I could find which is editing it to say I've deleted it. Can I simply delete a post?

Go to https://www.androidcentral.com/follow/ and turn on "Follow new forum posts"

You can delete posts only on the full or mobile website by selecting Edit first, where you will then have a Delete option.

I meant after you press Edit on the website, not below.

Pssst. Don't tell anyone though. I don't think the forums like people doing it too much, 'xcept I do it constantly after I discovered it.

No Delete button appears when I hit Edit. I get the upper "Save", "Go Advanced", and "Cancel".

I can't explain that then. You can raise another thread on it here.

Does 'Edit' come up if you use another browser? Say like Firefox?

 

[Aflaaaak]

Edit comes up, but I never seem to get the Delete button between "Go Advanced" and "Cancel" after I click it. I've all but given up on Firefox. It's stuttery, and for some reason, won't log me on after I enter my user name and password. Just looked for Delete on Internet Explorer, but same results. This happens on two different Windows computers..

Sorry...I meant delete.
