Delete items
You cannot always immediately delete items. Sometimes you need to perform steps to prepare an item for deletion.
To delete an item:
- Select an item in an index.
- Click Delete.
You can view a list of deleted items in either the My Items>Deleted or All Items>deleted views.
Referential integrity
When deleting items that are referenced by other items, you need to resolve any references that is broken by deleting the item. A dialog opens listing the items that cannot be deleted:
- Select an item from the list and click Edit References.
- Select an item and click Replace Reference to replace the item you are currently deleting with a different item. For example, if you are deleting a text component that is referenced within a presentation template, you can replace the reference to the text component you are deleting with a different component.
- Select an item and click Clear Reference to remove the reference to the item you are deleting. For example, if you are deleting a presentation template that is mapped to an authoring template, you can choose to clear the reference to the authoring template.
The referential integrity options available when deleting items depend on the level of referential integrity applied to different items. There are occasions where only one option is available. Other items may not be able to be deleted at all.
Restore items
You can restore a deleted item by restoring a version of an item. See Manage Versions of items for further information.
Purging items
Users who have been granted manager access or above to a library can purge deleted items by selecting deleted items in the "All Items" view and then clicking Purge. This removes all occurrences of the selected item, including all versions. You cannot restore purged items.
