Clearing Drafts

I've got two draft posts which I'm trying to clear. I've tried to clear them by setting the dates (both in the past month), selecting posts and then choosing 'clear all' but it just seems to clear my selections not the drafts.

Where am I going wrong? 🤔

    You can access your drafts, to delete them properly, via https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/drafts which is accessible via your user profile or the 'quick links' listing under 'my drafts'.

    Edit: think I misunderstood the question!

    Simply click or tap the three dots in a circle next to each draft, then choose the delete option

    Hi @maman

    On the right of individual draft, click the circle. This will show the option to 'Delete'.

    I've tried to clear them by setting the dates (both in the past month), selecting posts and then choosing 'clear all' but it just seems to clear my selections not the drafts.

    It sounds like you are trying to use the options in the side-panel. That's a filter to narrow down the drafts visible. The 'Clear All' option is just to reset that filter.
