DAVIDW 1,683 Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Thought it was just because I only had access via my phone but now back on the laptop , can't see anyway to delete old messages and it is 100% full . Is the only way for an admin to wipe the lot ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
carni 10,094 Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Hi David, I only use a laptop, and if I click on each message individually, I get two signs on the top right. One is red and says delete, the other says Compose New. I just go through all my messages individually clicking delete and that gets rid of mine. Hope this helps.

DAVIDW 1,683 Posted April 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Thanks carni , but I don't get those icons on my individual messages , no delete buttons anywhere . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LizzieM 9,507 Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Go to 'My Profile' Click 'Edit Profile' Left hand side at the bottom click 'Notifications' All messages should come up and you can delete them all in one go. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,466 Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Or alternatively, can you do (or see) this...... On the Home Page, Click on the envelope at top right next to your name. then click on "View all messages" then click on "my conversations" on the left. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ayupmeducks 1,730 Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 David, keep us updated, if you cannot resolve this problem, I'll try and empty your mailbox. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DAVIDW 1,683 Posted April 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Don't have an "edit profile" button as per Lizzies message . Don't see the Home Page either as per Cliff Tons message , mine defaults to "http://nottstalgia.com/forums/", whatever I try . Could be because my Browser is Mozilla Firefox ? Chrome seems to have stopped talking to my elderly Vista laptop now ! Also I have lost all the editing icons again in my reply box.....has it gone back to mobile skin again ? I haven't changed any themes but do use the phone more than the laptop . If you have to Ayupmeducks , empty the mailbox . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 That reminded me of the dreaded mobile skin!...had to totally rejig everything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ayupmeducks 1,730 Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 I use Firefox David, so no idea what;s happened to you, but I will attempt to empty your PM box. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ayupmeducks 1,730 Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 I'll leave Mick a PM, I can't find how to in the Admin Control Panel, it's changed since I last went in with the last update. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mick2me 3,033 Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 All PMs deleted, mailbox empty. You are in the mobile skin for some reason? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DAVIDW 1,683 Posted April 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 The skin somehow always reverts to mobile after a while without me changing any settings . Is it an automatic thing because I use my mobile and tablet much more than the laptop ? Prefer it to stay on "old school" (if thats the name ). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Booth 7,364 Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 'Old School' is the one that I've always prefered. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,466 Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 It's such a common problem, there's a song about it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
