How can I get the user messages in my CP deleted for good? I select the delete but I still have the title and who originally posted the question. I would like to clear them all out.

Thanks.

Are you referring to visitor messages on your public profile? I suspect that the mentors and admins can delete for good. I don't know what the policy is for reporting messages for deletion. You can however limit or stop visitor messages in the edit options menu of My PF.

Others aren't able to see that in your profile!

Yeah. Those are the ones. I didn't know about stopping them. I'll have to look for that setting. It drives me a bit nuts to see these deleted messages still there. It's an OCD thing on my part.

I've permanently deleted your visitor messages. As Kurdt says, you can select the option to not allow anyone to post visitor messages in your My PF.
