"Please note that normal users cannot delete a post once someone has replied."

I checked out the FAQ but it doesn't say anything about deleting a post that hasn't been replied to (it only mentions editing a post):

"How do I edit or delete a post?
Unless you are a board administrator or moderator, you can only edit or delete your own posts. You can edit a post by clicking the edit button for the relevant post, sometimes for only a limited time after the post was made. If someone has already replied to the post, you will find a small piece of text output below the post when you return to the topic which lists the number of times you edited it along with the date and time. This will only appear if someone has made a reply; it will not appear if a moderator or administrator edited the post, though they may leave a note as to why they’ve edited the post at their own discretion. Please note that normal users cannot delete a post once someone has replied."

Does anyone know how to delete a post that hasn't been replied to? Thanks.

Right next to the EDIT icon in the top right area of your post is a little x that is for delete.

This may only appear on a desktop or tablet computer as many features like this don't fit on a smartphone screen.

Thanks Craig. Weirdly I don't have an "X" to delete a posting in my interface, either on my MacBook or iPhone. Perhaps it's due to my browser (Safari)?

Hi Maine
Strange. Safari is not the problem because when I test it with my ipad, it works.
If you are not getting notifications either, perhaps the forum has somehow not completely connected you and the post.
I can delete a post for you if you want.

A possibility is that someone replied to your post and then deleted their post.
