Deleting an item

Deleting an item removes the item from displaying in the folder area after the session is completed. However, it remains in the content area until the content area administrator performs a system purge of deleted items.

To perform this task, you must be either a folder owner or have the appropriate folder or item-level privileges.

If you delete an item that has sub-items, all sub-items are also deleted.

To delete an item:

Note: If you are already in the Folder Manager containing the item you want to delete, skip to step 4.

  1. In the Navigator, click the Content Areas tab to navigate to Path: Content Areas.

  2. In the Name column, click the content area link that contains the item you want to work with.

  3. The content area home page (root folder) is displayed with all the sub-folder links that were chosen.

    • If necessary, click a sub-folder link to view the contents of a given folder.

    • If you do not see the folder that you want to work with, this means that you have not been granted the appropriate folder access privileges. See your content area administrator to gain access.

  4. Click Edit folder located on the main banner to switch to Edit mode.

This displays the item management tools next to all the items in the folder.

  1. In the folder area, locate the item you want to edit.

  2. Click beside the item. The Delete Item confirmation page is displayed.

Note: If you want to undelete or recover the deleted item, click beside the item.

  1. Click Yes to proceed with the deletion or click Cancel if you don't want to execute the operation.

The item is deleted from this folder.
