If you have already emptied/deleted them from the Deleted Items folder they are gone absent a successful use of an application such as RECUVA which will be iffy. If you haven't and cannot find any Deleted Items folder, have you opened the Local Folder and/or any named dedicated folder by clicking on the + in front of it? This will reveal an account's tree.

If you delete *one* of the duplicates that appear when you post a comment, *both* copies will disappear. Up until now, one of the copies has just gone away after a short time. However, I'm now seeing duplicate posts that were posted well over an hour ago, so things may be getting worse. Jackie on the Antique Rose forum is even having problems *reporting* the problem. You'd think by now someone at Houzz would have caught on. Does no one who works there actually post on the forums??? Tamara used to visit us fairly regularly, but I haven't seen her in a long time.

Well, you've got me stumped. The collaborate button is the Invite button at the upper left, but that doesn't allow you to make it private. You can go into your profile and click advanced settings and make ALL of your ideabooks private, but I don't see a way to make just one private. If you find out, please post the answer here.

Elmer everyone is allergic to some thing. Many older people can no longer digest certain foods. So your "not common to others" is just you just do not listen or watch what other people are doing. You live in a bubble. My objection to Sylvia's post was her contention that people should all eat a vegetarian diet and use corn and legumes as the protein. Which is very dangerous for some. Peanuts by the way is a legume. I have known several people that have been vegetarians of various types from those that only eat nuts and grains to ovo lacto ones. There are many ways to obtain what is needed for your body just not the one that Sylvia wants people to use.
