I have now reverted the post edits so the solution can be useful for others. @bowtiediguana, if you do not wish to have your questions and solutions public, please don’t post them on a public forum.
Otherwise this would be a private consultation platform, which it clearly isn’t. Anyways, I hope you understand our reasons. If you wish, we can anonymise your account (see How can I delete my forum account?) but I don’t really see the point. Also you’re posting from a nickname, not your real name.
Furthermore, there is no such thing as a wrong question here. The only wrong questions are the ones that don’t get asked.
