Full Version: Troubles deleting a post

Maybe I am overlooking something but is there not a way for an administrator to delete posts from users? I don't want to delete all posts from 1 user. Just be able to delete a post that is inappropriate.

Thank you in advance!
There should be a little red delete button in the postbit - [Image: postbit_delete.gif]
Well if you're an admin you should see that button on everyone's posts.
Okay, I had to go back and turn some functionality in the templates back on and now can do what I have been beating my head against the wall to do. Thank you for your responses!
Now I am stuck on this again. In Firefox on my MAC I have the ability to delete a post but in Safari, and my PC with Firefox and IE, I don't have the option to delete posts.

Any more advice?
So the button isn't there?? Even after a refresh??
That's the code in the postbit template, but what's actually in the "postbit_quickdelete" template?
Just the standard code with the installation. I don't have the option to revert to original.
<a href="editpost.php?pid={$post['pid']}" onclick="Thread.deletePost({$post['pid']}); return false;" style="display: none;" id="quick_delete_{$post['pid']}"><img src="{$theme['imglangdir']}/postbit_delete.gif" alt="{$lang->postbit_qdelete}" title="{$lang->postbit_qdelete}" /></a>
<script type="text/javascript">
// <!--
$('quick_delete_{$post['pid']}').style.display = '';
// -->
</script>

My user is set as an administrator with super moderator and moderator selected below that.

I deleted my cookies on my Firefox and now I don't get the delete option there either so it has to be something in the configuration settings.
Ok, can we have a link to your forum??
