OK, so I was attempting to add a new index to my blog posts because for some reason you are not able to go back and edit a previous blog post, which would have allowed me to add more content to the previous index. I thought I had gotten it right, and until I had added all the new material, I had planned to keep it private and save it as a draft until I was ready and had added all the appropriate links. But instead, it looks like it’s been published and awaiting approval. However it remains a private unviewable post which I can’t edit. I need the administrator or whom ever to either allow me to edit it or at least delete it, and try something else. It would be nice to be able to go back to a former blog post to post a link to another in a series. Would appreciate any help with regards to this issue.
@Harvest 1874. Which ones are you referring to? I can delete it. You can also edit it as well I believe?

The one I’m presently having problems with is my newest blog entry I was working on, my fourth blog index. As I had said I was still working on it so I thought I could save it as a draft until I was finished. I hit the keep this post private and save. However now I note I can’t come back and edit it. Without being able to edit the post I am unable to add new content to the index and connect links. Making it easier on the reader.
You will note if you look at one of your saved drafts at the top right-hand corner of the page there are several buttons, Publish Now, Publish Schedule and an Unwatched button. Next to this are three dots which when clicked on give you several more options including the ability to edit your blog post. These options are only available while your blog post is still in the draft mode. On post already published there is only a Post Entry button and a Watch button, no edit buttons.
The ability to edit older post is not only necessary, but essential especially on a Christian forum. As we are all still in the school of Christ and are still learning, our knowledge and understanding of God’s word should be increasing as time goes by, and it’s very much possible that we may have to adjust or amend these former views. Without this ability our former views which we may have now found to be contrary to the divine testimony, error, may inadvertently cause one of the Lord’s “little ones”, those not yet established in the faith to stumble, and we all know that the Lord has warned us of what the consequences of such actions will bring.
If you can’t restore the ability to edit my blog post, I request that you delete it, as I am unable. I will attempt to try a different way to index all my newest blog post, hopefully.
Thank you for the assistance.

Yes, that's the one. As I said you might want to look into the issue of our being able to edit old post. We were able to do this before the blog section was revamped.

Unfortunately, Angelina you deleted the wrong post. You deleted Part Four of the current study, viz., “THE PAROUSIA (PRESENCE) OF OUR LORD JESUS, Part 4”. You were supposed to delete “Harvest Blog Index, Part 4”, as I had confirmed with you on the previous post, #8.
I still need to have you delete this Index. I will repost Part Four of the study. I don’t know if its possible for you or another Administrator to place my post back in its proper place in between Posts 3 and 5, but if not its all good, I provide a link from Part 3 to Part 4, as well as one back to Part 5.
Thank You
P.S. Thanks for fixing the ability to edit old blog post. The only thing you still can't edit is the blog itself.
