hi Rsalomo, it seems you would have to do some more work. At the moment I see to possible ways to fix this: - Re-design your application so that the news articles donīt need a corresponding entry in the users table. Find another way to link user and entry. - Do some code which is executed when deleting this user and which edits the tables so that the user entry is another one.
