HI I am just wondering how you fully remove a dicussion on your flatboard? I have been looking through the options available, and I can edit and delete things within one of the discussions but I can't fully remove it that I can see, any ideas?

Hoping it makes sense but basically there isn't anything with three lines to click to remove the actual topic discussion from the home screen.

Also there doesn't seem to be anywhere to edit the topic heading either

To fully remove a discussion (topic) from the home screen in Flatboard, follow these steps:

1. Access the Admin Panel:
   Go to your Flatboard installation and log in as an administrator.

2. Navigate to the Discussion:

   • Go to the Forum section.
   • Locate the discussion you want to remove.

3. Delete the Discussion:

   • Open the discussion.
   • Click the ⋮ (three-dot menu) in the top-right corner of the discussion.
   • Select Delete discussion from the dropdown menu.

4. Confirm Deletion:
   A confirmation prompt will appear. Click OK to permanently delete the discussion.

Note on Editing Topic Headings:

• To edit a discussion's title, you must have moderator or administrator permissions.
• Open the discussion and click the ⋮ (three-dot menu) in the top-right corner.
• Select Edit to modify the title.

If you don’t see the three-dot menu, ensure you are logged in with sufficient permissions.

I have looked and I do not have the three dots within the discussion because I deleted everything within the post and it still didn't remove it.

Could you send me the logs from your installation? That would help me take a closer look at what’s happening and understand why the discussion can’t be removed.

Please also avoid using heading formatting in your messages. It would be better to keep the replies as regular text without large titles or headings.

Thanks!

Found the bug, and it's exactly what it looked like from your side: once you'd deleted every post, there was no way left to delete the discussion itself.
Here's why. The "..." menu (the one with "Delete discussion" in it) isn't attached to the discussion. It's rendered as part of the first post. Delete that post, and everything else in the thread, and there's nothing left for the page to hang that menu on, so it just doesn't show up. The discussion is still sitting in the database with zero posts attached to it. That's the ghost state you ended up in: visible on the home screen, no button anywhere to remove it.
Nothing was stopping you from getting there, either. Deleting a post never checked whether it happened to be the first and last one in its thread. Removing your own posts one by one was a normal, allowed action that just happened to end in a dead end.

Fixed now: deleting a discussion's first post deletes the whole discussion. There's no in-between state anymore where a discussion exists with no posts in it. Turned out there was a related gap too: a moderator removing someone else's opening post, or an author blocked by a delete time limit, used to go through the plain "delete post" action instead, which skipped the discussion-level rules entirely. Both paths now go through the same check

This will ship in the next release. I'll update this thread once it's out.
