    The ability to delete a post is not readily apparent or has been removed.

    I posted something in the wrong category but there is no way to change the category OR delete the post.

    Hi@Andrew1983

    A Moderator will be able to either Delete the post for you or Move the post to the correct Category, depending on what you'd prefer.

    Please use theReportfunction from the flag icon on the post you'd like to adjust and leave a comment, as shown above, and we'll be happy to help.

    Cheers!

    Genevieve
