It would be good if there were more traditional messaging functions, such as the ability to delete multiple posts, which i've mentioned before, but also the ability to forward messages which i still can't see how to do. Unless i'm missing something?
You don't need to forward a message, because you can just invite additional people to the conversation. Under the "Conversation Participants" there will be an "Invite More" option if you have the permissions to do so. It's actually a *quite* handy feature.
You only can invite people to the conversation if you started the conversation, or the starter used the "Allow anyone in the conversation to invite others" open when starting it, as you can see here: https://forums.digitalpoint.com/conversations/add
That explains it then, thanks. I was trying to forward some old messages from other members to some colleagues who also use this site, so i guess old messages won't have the option to invite participants.
