does it work in safe mode ? was this a topic or post? are you an admin or mod? more information would help. my guess is it is related to one of the various post edit trust level limit settings? [image] Trust Level Permissions Reference Using Discourse bookmar…

Is a topic. As admin I can delete, but I want to be able to delete my own posts also if im not an admin

Users are limited to delete their own topics only if it has no replies and is less than 24h old.

I had a look and there appear to be no site settings for deleting topics. You should redirect your users to the flag button where admins can remove it instead if they see fit.

Not sure if this is what’s happening but today i found that a topic using nested replies can’t be deleted unless its flat mode? For me if its nested I can’t delete [image] But if its a normal topic I can delete the topic.

Il peut avoir une donnée erronée sinon fermer le sujet et supprimer par la suite j ai déjà eu le cas une ou deux fois

Yes is probably the nested the problem, but how to fix?

I cannot anymore delete topics , why?

many of the topic admin and post admin functions are not working as expected yet in the nested mode
