In summary, to delete a post, click on the "delete" or "remove" button on the post. This can be done for posts from any time. Deleting a post will also remove any comments and likes on it, but shared posts will still be visible. Deleted posts cannot be undone, but they can be reposted. You cannot delete someone else's post, as it is their content.

You should PM a mentor (they are listed https://www.physicsforums.com/help/mentorforums/" ) and ask that it be deleted.

I am not an expert in social media platforms and their features. However, based on my understanding, there are usually options or buttons available on a post that allow you to delete it. You can try looking for a "delete" or "remove" button on the post or consult the platform's help center for specific instructions. It is also important to consider the potential consequences of deleting a post, such as losing important information or disrupting the flow of a conversation. It may be helpful to think carefully before deleting a post and consider if there are alternative solutions.
