Anyone else having trouble deleting draft messages?
I typed out a reply to a thread and posted it and then later when I looked at the thread again I saw my post but at the bottom the text of the post was still in the window where you type things. It shows up in my drafts folder but I can't delete it. I've hit the DELETE in the upper right corner multiple times and it just takes me back to the thread. There used to be a little X up there and when you hit it the draft would go away. Not no more!
Anyone else having this issue?

Last night I mentioned a user in my post, got a similar user on accident and couldn't delete it and had to ask for help 🆘

I've deleted a few since the "DELETE" button showed up to replace the "X". No issues so far.

I find myself often writing a post to a thread and before I post it, decide it has no value or interest. It then will just sit there until I go over to the Draft folder on the right for a long while before I go there and delete it.
No problems getting rid of those unpublished posts but they sometimes do stack up to quite a few and can be over a long time period.

Yes, I have had the same thing happen to me. I found to hit delete and give it a minute or so instead of repeatedly hitting delete. Like there is a lag time for it to take.
There is still work in progress of the forums, such as new banner ads, profile analytics. I chalk it up to just that, part of work in progress.

I get the 'work in progress' thing and fully support it. The problem is that this was a regress, the little X used to work just dandy. Now when I hit delete (once) it takes me back to the thread that the draft was written for and shows the draft text. Most times the post I was writing actually posted but it still shows up as a draft.
I guess they'll figger it out... Or not!

Just tried an experiment and it worked fine for me. Did a save draft on this topic and when I went to my draft listing and hit the delete key, it was gone in 3 seconds. I did screw up and hit the back arrow and the draft popped back up. Hitting the delete key again gave me a draft not found message though. Used the general discussion tab and got back here with no drafts listed under the quick links. So, all good here. Bob
