How do you edit/delete posting on this website?
I want to edit/delete my own posting after I post them and can't find a way to do it. Any suggestion?

I think you have about an hour to edit, not sure about deleting (maybe DM your mod).

This is correct. After 90 minutes, you need a moderator's help to edit/delete. Moderators want to be given a good reason to make such changes, especially when there are replies quoting the post that will be edited/deleted.

You can also delete a post if you do it soon enough. When you go into the edit mode, look to your right and down you will see a delete button. I think you have a 90 minute time period.
Contact a moderator with the URL if you need one of your posts deleted.
