How can members delete their own posts?

My apologies if this has been discussed elsewhere (I have searched!)

Currently, members can edit but not delete their own posts.

Is there settings option I need to enable for them to be able to delete their own posts?

Under post edit time limit on the admin/site_settings/category/posting page.I see “The author can edit or delete their post for (n) minutes after posting. Set to 0 for forever.”

“min trust to edit post” is set to 0

Is there some place else I’d need to edit settings for folks to be able to delete their posts - not topics, just posts? Or is the only option to delete a post using the edit function?

Many thanks in advance!

You are incorrect. They can delete their own post. They cannot delete their own topic.

I have a feeling you are confusing the two.

Thanks for the reply, @cpradio!

Should members see a ‘delete’ option, or is deleting done via editing post?

In other words, is there some place else I’d need to edit settings for folks to be able to delete their posts - not topics, just posts? Or is the only option to delete a post using the edit function?

Many thanks in advance!

It is typically hidden behind the “…” on the post (I’ve expanded it on mine above)

Thanks for the speedy reply! :grinning:

OK I think what has been confusing me is it doesn’t look like a member can delete their first post - only edit it. I do see that members have the little trash can hidden behind the “…” on subsequent posts in a topic, just not on their first post if it was the first post in the topic.

Thank you so much for the help!

기억이 정확하지는 않지만, 이후에 답글이 없는 주제는 짧은 지연 후에 삭제할 수 있도록 변경했습니다.

지연 시간은 얼마나 될 것인가요?

이 주제는 꽤 오래되었지만, 사용자 게시글 삭제 규칙은 해당 포럼에 대해 관리자가 설정한 규칙에 따라 달라집니다.

안녕하세요 @Ashwani_Kumar. 관리자인 경우, 이 설정들이 필요합니다:
