I am a newbie. So, of course I am gonna goof up a little on my first day here. LOL Somehow I managed to save a draft of the same blog post twice. I have no idea how I did this. Anyway, I managed to submit one copy, but the other draft is still sitting there looking at me, but it says offline. Is there any way to delete this? It is making my OCDs go crazy!!!! Okay, maybe that was a bit of an exaggeration, but it does bother me and I would love to know how to delete it. Thanks!

I have experienced that. I have saved two blogs for they’re not yet ready to be submitted. When I go back in the next day, those blogs couldn’t be edited, couldn’t be opened. They’re “offline”. I thought they’re “disapproved”.

One member asked about on editing an existing blog. There I read the reply that it couldn’t be edited. It couldn’t be moved or deleted. Only the admin could touch, edit, or even delete it. But in the forum, any member could edit his work a minute he submits it. After several hours, it couldn’t be edited anymore, I think.

Those of us who have recently joined the site are still classified as newbies, and are not allowed to edit. If you need to fix a published blog post, or if something has been saved as a draft and you need to edit or delete, the best thing to do is to ask @support or @admin for their help 😀

I think that all of us are newbies, or I am wrong. Did anyone get anything from @support or @admin what are the requirements to edit our posts?

@s-stephens  We cannot delete nor edit our drafts nor are they available unless you send a message to Admin

The moral of the story is do not make mistakes (lol)

@s-stephens I did that once as well, just to test out the draft function. So, the post is lying there with the status ‘Offline’. I plan to wait until I can edit, then I will see if I can delete it. 😀

@bestwriter Glad that support and admin are helpful here, so they will help us to correct it. 🙂

@rapidblue There was once I asked support to help me add in my referral link to LiteracyBase in my first post, as I did not know we can actually add our LiteracyBase referral link to our posts, but not others. Support was helpful and helped to edit and publish mine very soon.
