Deleting a Blog Post

[quote=Pluckin Penguin]The requirements for publishing a blog post apply to deleting a blog post as well. If I were to try to delete a blank in all aspect blog post, then the following errors would occur: this is an invalid title, try putting in some alphanumeric characters; article title is required; category is required; article text cannot be empty. I apologize for the really small bug report.[/quote]

[quote=Mowen]I'm not sure what exactly the issue you're reporting is? Could you explain a little more and link to a page you're talking about?[/quote]

[quote=Janitsu]I guess that he is trying to delete unposted blog but it gives the same errors as a finished post would give if it doesn't have title for example.[/quote]

[quote=Pluckin Penguin][quote=Janitsu] I guess that he is trying to delete unposted blog but it gives the same errors as a finished post would give if it doesn't have title for example. [/quote] Yeah, the problem is that you are not allowed to delete a blog post without meeting the requirements for publishing a blog post. Currently, if you were to type up a blog post and decide to delete it, then the blog post would not be deleted until you add a proper title, assign a category, and add some text. Its hard to explain, but just try deleting a blank blog post for yourself. EDIT1: Here is a picture of what happens if I attempt to delete a blank blog post: [center][img=http://i.imgur.com/hLL5Dgq.png?1][/center][/quote]

[quote=Mowen]So if you were to add all the requirements, and then try to delete it, it would work? It just doesn't work if you have a blank blog post / missing sections?[/quote]

[quote=Mowen]Alright, I will report the bug. Thank you.[/quote]

[quote=FourCourtJester]Hi guys, This should be fixed on our next push. I changed the way the buttons behave slightly. - For new articles, 'Save' & 'Publish' will be your first options. Saving won't publish, but Publish will save and publish. - 'View Article' and 'Delete' will appear next to articles that you've saved or published. - 'Publish' is removed from articles that are already published. If you fill out a blog post but decide not to keep it, simply close the browser or navigate away to another site. It will not automatically post unless you hit 'Save' or 'Publish'. This should help clear up which buttons to press when using the blog functions. - FourCourtJester[/quote]
