rllmukforum Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 IP.board 3.x allowed users to delete their own posts, through usergroup permissions, but would not permit them to delete a post if it was the first in a thread. Allowing them to do so would, of course, delete everyone else's posts in that thread. It seems that in 4.1 there is no such restriction, and delete post also means delete thread if you're the OP. We are very keen to permit users to delete their own content (not just hide, for numerous reasons), is it possible to revert to the previous functionality?
n.karshev Posted March 4, 2016 Posted March 4, 2016 This is the option in member groups, after 60 minutes they cannot (this is my board setting). Editing Can edit own content? OnThe content must not be locked. Edit time restriction Can edit own content up to minutes after posting or Unlimited Can edit silently? OffNormally a message will indicate if content has been edited. If enabled, members in this group will be able to hide this message. Staff members who have permission are always able to see the edit.

That covers editing, but I'm looking for deleting. Specifically, this is what I want to enable, which was how it worked under 3.x: Users can delete their own posts (literally delete, not edit all content out) Users cannot delete their own post if they are the topic starter Really doesn't appear to be any way to enable this feature, which makes sense as 3.x applied the logic without intervention.
