Deleting forum

by 1858463 February 24th 2013, 11:50 pm

I would like to delete my old forum but could not find anywhere in the admin panel to do so. I found this thread telling me to PM Sanket. I tried this and got the message "You haven't reached the post limit for sending private messages." Can anybody help?

You need three posts in order to PM somebody

To delete your forum you need to be on the founder account.

Go to Admin Control Panel --> General --> Forum --> Forum Deletion

Derri,

It's two posts, not three. Wink

Thank you. I don't know how I missed that.

Edit: Just wondering how long should it take to receive the email for final deletion.
Edit: Never mind. I had to type delete in capitals for it to work.

Sorry forgot to mention that you need to delete the forum in capitals. I am glad it worked for you and I am glad I could help.

There is several members that don't really get the email, so that's why you PM Sanket. Wink

I think he has got the email. Before he didn't type it all in Caps so that's why he might not have got the email. By the sounds of the last post I think he has perhaps gotten the email.
