How to reopen a 'completed' post.

[Barbara348]

Hi, I have just added a new entry to an old post which I'd had no luck with, in the hope that someone might be able to help.

The trouble is that I cannot work out how to delete 'Completed' from my topic subject heading.

Can someone advise please?

Thanks

Barbara.

Hi Barbara 

If it's less than 24 hours old you could use modify but, most likely it is older,  so you'd have to ask a Mod to do it for you.

Hello there Gadget, nice to speak again after a long while.

Thanks for your advice, below is the old post I originally placed which I have added to today but cannot delete the 'completed' bit:

Completed.Grave Lookup, Hythe, Kent,UK.

Is there anyone who may be able to do a Grave lookup for me please, in Saltwood Churchyard / Cemetery, Hythe, Kent.

Hello Barbara

 I see that you've added to that post but maybe it won't be picked up.

I think if I were you, I'd maybe  start a new thread on the Kent board, asking for the info that you've put here and link it to your old thread by quoting the url:

Oops - see you've modified already    I'm sure Casalguidi wouldn't mind you sending her a PM, althernatively  you could click on the  Report to Mod icon, bottom right of your message.

Hi,

If you press the "Report to Moderator " button, I'm sure the first one on will be able to help you.

Hi Gadget,

I think you're probably right - I may as well start afresh with a new post and linking to the old. It seems to be the most straight forward solution.

Hello Sandra, thanks for the reply.

Actually I had opened the " Report to Moderator " but it's function only appears to be used for the following reasons:

'To report an abusive or wrongly posted message ' and I didn't want to risk using it incorrectly.       

Thanks both for your help.

Barbara.

Hi Barbara,

This was the same question asked this week and gives a reply from a moderator.
