| I recently re-started using my blog to just track progress in my gardens. There are currently 4 unpublished blog posts that I would like to simply delete. They are all obsolete and incomplete, of no use to me. How can I do that? I am also a tad confused on when blog entries show up anywhere. I understand the 'following' concept. But in today's 'recent posts' on my home page, a random (to me) blog entry showed up. I don't usually see these unless I am actively following someone. I assume there are lots of blogs with regular entries that typically do not show up in 'recent posts' so wondering if perhaps there is a setting of some type that I need to tweak. Or perhaps the blogger has it set to show up somehow? Confused. I want to live in a world where the chicken can cross the road without its motives being questioned. |

| OK, I figured out the random blog posts showing up in 'Recent Threads' -- it triggers when someone COMMENTS on a person's blog post, not when the person actually publishes a new blog post. That comment essentially is a new thread and then shows up in the Recent Thread list. So, that mystery is solved.

| Still trying to figure out how to delete unpublished blog posts. Maybe I have to first publish, then delete? Seems kind of backward. Or will they just live in my unpublished list forever? Thanks for any insight. I want to live in a world where the chicken can cross the road without its motives being questioned. |

| Hi Deb -- I think you do have to publish it and then delete it; I just tried it with one that I had hanging "in limbo." Cubits.org - A Universe of Communities[/I] / Share your recipes: Favorite Recipes A-Z cubit C/F temp conversion / NGA Member Map |

| And now I can't find the 'delete' button for blogs -- I saw it somewhere but must have mislaid it... I want to live in a world where the chicken can cross the road without its motives being questioned. |

| I just went to my blog page area, created a new 'test' blog, save and preview, then had the option to delete. Poof!! It disappeared. Sunset Zone 28, AHS Heat Zone 9, USDA zone 8b~"Leaf of Faith" |

| Aha. And for those posts that are older and already published, instead of hitting the 'Edit' button (which makes sense to me), I need to hit the 'Preview' button (which makes zero sense to me) to get to the 'delete' option. But, as long as I can navigate around, that's fine. I want to live in a world where the chicken can cross the road without its motives being questioned. |
