Solved Administration Panel > Forum Deletion Problem

Post by Hydreigon205 Mon 17 Mar - 22:06

Hi, I have created a couple of forums and I would like to delete one. So, I go to "General" then "Forum Deletion" and it says I must type DELETE in the box with the red border to delete my forum. I type in DELETE and I click the delete button. I go to my email and I click on the forum deletion link to delete it, and it's the long link. I see stuff in it such as "delete" or "forum" and I click on it. Then, the link just takes me to the home page of my administration panel. Any solutions to my problem?

 confused

Are you sure you're still in the admin panel when you click the delete link.

So what to do is type DELETE into the box, open a NEW tab, got to your email, click the deletion link.

That should work.

You need to be signed into the admin panel and on that page in order for it to work.

If you are still logged in to the administration panel when you press the delete link in the email, you will be redirected to the administration panel with a message saying that your forum has been deleted.  

Try going to your forum now.

OK thank you! It seems I have realized I must keep the tab open and open a new tab for it to work. I tried going back to my forum after I deleted it and it went to forumotion.com and said it didn't exist. Thank you!
