Deleting a custom item type

When you delete a custom item type, all items of that type are also deleted. You cannot undo this action.

You must be the content area administrator, the portal administrator, or have Manage privileges on All Content Areas to delete a custom item type.

To delete a custom item type:

  1. In the Navigator, click the Content Areas tab.

  2. Navigate to the following path:

    Path: Content Areas > ContentAreaDisplayName > Custom Types > Item Types

    where ContentAreaDisplayName is the content area in which the custom item type was created.

    Note: If the custom item type is shared, it will be in the Shared Objects content area.

  3. In the row for the custom item type that you want to delete, click Delete.

  4. In the confirmation page, click Yes.

Note

  • You cannot delete base item types.
