How to clear messages in inbox...

Ok, I am Sofa King. I used to know how to do this in the old forum, but it doesn't seem to be intuitive in this one.

Thanks,
Twang

its called "leave conversation" now.

Dont sweat it. I'm an IT guy and been online doing message boards and email since 1992. That change made no sense to me either.

So in order to clean up my inbox I have to open each message and click "Leave message" twice???

It would be nice if after selecting several messages I could hit the "selected messages" button and then delete/leave, as was available in the old system. The check boxes are there and the selected messages action button is there but it does not open a drop down box with actions.

No - check the box to the right of the "conversation" and then a menu will pop up at the bottom of the page. Pic below with Chrome in Android.

Thanks. Guess I'm blind and didn't see it. I was looking in the old location and not all the way to the bottom of the window. On my PC it has a very different look than on what you used. I was looking were I place the long red oval...

It appears that the authors of the software are reusing code that manages the threads as a messaging system rather than build a robust PM system. IMO, it's one of the shortcomings of this system.
