Re: Guidelines, Forum information, and how to do stuff!
I gonna put this here, coz I went through 2pgs of this forum and didnt find a thread on it.
I would like to know why I cannot edit/modify my own posts?
- Ok nevermind, the edit button miraculously appeared as soon as I posted this message - I swear it wasnt there for the last two days!
Ok, new question: Why can I not edit/modify my own posts in selected threads? for example; I replied to PHP Recursion, but after posting I noticed that I had made an error in the code I provided. I would like to rectify this but I cannot edit/modify the post.

Long story short, you can't delete your account... However, you are perfectly entitled to simply not log into the account any further if you so decide.
I'm sure you have your reasons for not wishing to continue your interaction with the DaniWeb community and, while I hate to see anyone leave, it's likely none of my business as to why you've decided to do so.
There is quite a lot of information contained in the articles you will find at those links, and I'm sure that it will be enough to answer most of your initial queries about using this Forum.
When you've come to grips with all that, you might want to head into the 'Control Panel' for your user account to see if you'd like to make some changes to the way you have the Forum working for you. There are a range of Settings available to change the way your posts display, and to edit your personal account details.
Most importantly, if you click on the 'Edit options' menu item, you can alter the way the forum works for you. Of particular relevence are settings to change the way you are notified about new posts in topics you've posted in. Your default setting is to inform you of new posts as a weekly summary via email. You can change that to instant notification if you like, so that you are informed immediately if someone has answered your question.
Also, there is the option to alter the interface for the message editor. You can set it to a text editor only, to a Standard editor with formatting controls, or even to a full 'What you see is what you get' interface, with formatting displayed as you create it.
Please feel free to explore the alternatives available to you, and make any changes to your account profile that you wish to put into place.
That all said, however, there are doubtless some features and procedures that aren't readily apparent on reading through the basic FAQ sections of the forum. So I'll invite experienced forum members to post short 'Guides' to using some of the more obscure (or not so obscure) facets of forum use.
I was in the community center - community feedback and I clicked on a link which was supposed to take me to forum rules but this is what I got:
Invalid FAQ Item specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator
So that is what I am trying to do, notify the administrator
