Delete post in a thread not working (NOT first post but maybe several down from #1). Anything wrong?

Delete Posts is not enabled. While it may have been enabled for a short period previously, CorvetteForum did not have it enabled in past.

I've always been able to delete my own posts, even before I became a moderator. Not sure if there was a misunderstanding about what posts we're talking about.

Maybe that inability that AORoads is talking about is part of the strange things going on in the forum right now.

Savewave and I was discussing this prior to this thread because of a member's inquiry. I think I misrecalled the setting because going back I found evidence that members could delete their own content as long as it's not an entire thread with replies.

Additionally, I see some conflicts with the settings. We have usergroup settings and we have forum settings. They don't match and is why some posts can be deleted and why some cannot.

We'll have to investigate.
