Editing and deleting discussion posts You cannot edit or delete others' posts. If you post a message in error and the option to delete it is not available to you, contact your instructor. On the Thread Detail page, click the title of one of your own posts.
If the post is edited, there is no history for the Instructor to look at to see what was changed. If the post was deleted, the instructor has no idea what the post was or whose post it was. Most instructors do not want this feature available to students.
