Hi Teena

If you want to delete a whole thread, then delete the original entry and it deletes the lot.

If you want to delete a message in your inbox, there's a dustbin icon heading the column and there's a tick box next to each message. Unfortunately you need to highlight all the message you want to delete and scroll down to the bottom to the purple delete button to delete them.

As for your threads, if you're asking for help then I wouldn't delete them, you never know whose going to find them when searching and potentially be able to help you.

Hope that helps :D

The best thing too is to only have 1 thread covering a topic then that is also less you'll have to delete

threads are what this is - you have started this thread and I am replying on it!!!

to delete messages you click in the delete box and then at the bottom of the page is another delete and it will delete all those messages with a tick in the box
