How do I delete an article or task from a forum?
Christopher Brooks, 6 Oct 2000
Last updated: 3 Mar 2002

To delete an article or task, go to Reorder Contents in the left hand column under Editing Command and follow the instructions:

To delete an item, set its Section to -1. It won't actually be deleted, but it will disappear from all views of the Forum. Topics cannot be deleted in this way; instead, just recycle them by changing the title and text.
