Hi,
Does anyone know how to delete a comment on a hub after the 5 minute editing grace period has expired? For some reason, one of my replies to a reader was posted twice and I'd like to be rid of one of them.
Thanks for your help.
Theo
You can delete any comment on any of your own hubs. You just can't edit after a certain time. One of the buttons underneath will let you.
You can go to the Hub (not in editing mode), and you'll see "moderate my own comment" underneath the comment. Click it and it will hide the comment.

Since HP suggests that we delete irrelevant comments, I have been attempting to do so. My problem is that I may have a short string of comments, but answer the comments all in one comment capsule. For instance, I may delete comments A and C while wanting to keep B. I can do that, but in my answer,...

How many times do you edit an idled Hub before deleting it? Or do you keep it idled so that links to it are still good? Also, for what reasons do you either leave it idled or delete it or still try to fix it? I have one Hub which I've edited a few times, and this last time after I edited it, it...
