I've spent time looking for a delete option but find myself in an endless loop of being able to change ext but not delete the story.

Please delete the (Draft) China 'story'

and please tell me where the delete option is for my future reference.

Thanks for your help

Hi Peter! To change the heading of your story: open "edit text", highlight/then delete the title. Re-type the title as you want it to read. Hope this helps! If not, let us know!

Peter: I think I read your concern wrong:) To delete the story: open the "edit text", scroll down to the bottom of the page where you will see "delete" story; click on it -- a prompt will let you know that once you choose to delete, the story is no longer available. I hope this helps, too:)!

Hi Rhonda:

Thanks for the note: trouble is I do not have (I cannot locate?) a delete button.

Hi Peter, it is next to "save changes" at the bottom of the page -- you have to be in "edit text" mode. I checked a story of mine and it is showing for me.

In order for a delete button to show, you have to have the channel section and at least one other tag filled in and then the delete button will suddenly appear. Let me know if this works, if not, I can do it for you.

Peter, I think I finally understand:) We all know that I am not the brightest bulb on the planet when it comes to tech stuff:) I should have left it to our go-to guy:).

The draft story can not be accessed, but I think what you want is the draft to be removed from your channel -- :) If true, I think Jordan will have to be the one to address it. 

Learning something new everyday!:)

The way that I have deleted my draft was to go ahead and publish it. Then go back to the story(draft) and delete it. I know this in unconventional, but it worked for me.

Found your message this pm.

Thank you for the sequencing of locating the delete button, and the offer of hands-on help.

As you said the delete button will magically appear - it did....and the page is now gone.

Again, thank you.
