Is there a way to stop the search on wetpaint sites as they show up deleted threads and someone has demanded i get rid of the cache memory so the posts dont show in the searches? A post by a member was requested to be removed otherwise they would sue etc , i immediately removed the alleged offending post
have I done what is required of me as moderator and co/admin?
Do you find this valuable?

The deleted posts should be removed from searches over time, having deleted the post there is nothing more that needs to be done. The post is gone even if it still appears in searches, they should have no problem with that. You have done everything you really can do as a moderator and co/admin. Do you find this valuable?

When I deleted a thread on my site that showed up in search engines, it took about two weeks to come off. Just be patient, it will come off. Do you find this valuable?

The cache memory will clear itself over time. If the company is concerned about the content being available for everyone to see, you can make your site private, which prevents anyone who is not already a member from viewing your wiki. http://www.wetpaintcentral.com/page/Site+Permissions+Settings Do you find this valuable?
