Hello everyone!
How do I delete a blog I created earlier?

Thank you

I have asked this - and edit we cannnot!

Will be good to attach files to replies too!

Then, what will be the essential difference between a Blog and Question...?

It seems that the blog mainly serves to publish articles ....

but it is not clear why  they can't  be deleted.

[LucMeekes]

Not to be deleted probably stems from the log part of blog.
A log is something that is meant to be kept....

As a blogger, it should be at my own discretion, whether or not to delete the article I published. Especially if I have written about nonsenses discovered in later times.

[LucMeekes]

Suppose you had published the info in a newspaper, or in a book.
What would you do to 'delete' it?

Certainly, if anyone had published an article on paper media, there would be nothing left to do. But we are not in that condition. And, in any case, it should be enough  just a subsequent declaration of annulment.

It's called a "retraction."  Means, "I published this in error, I was wrong, please ignore it."

Papers usually print sensational news on page 1, and retractions in small print somewhere around page 12 . . .

I know that one month or so ago we can edit and delete blogs.

It is one error it seem

We can not atach files in replies of a blog.

My question was rather:

what is the point of making a Mathcad Blog separately from Mathcad Questions if the functionality is exactly the same?

Or, turn it around:

If you want to make your posts editable and deleteable, don't put them in Mathcad Blog, but in Mathcad Questions instead.

We have fallen for ignorance assuming that the most obvious thing, when we are on a site, is to be able to correct, or even erase, what has been written.....They tricked us.....

That's right, we don't have the ability to edit or delete our blog post.
