  • Type : Deleted items can be sorted by type (Folder, Page, Resource...).
  • Author: Deleted items can be sorted by the author of the item deletion.

The banner contains the following three functions:

  • Empty trash

This function empties the recycle garbage can and permanently deletes all items.

  • Restore

This function restores items from the Recycle Bin and is described here.

  • Delete permanently

This function allows you to delete an item from the recycle garbage can permanently.

After selecting the item, click on Delete

A pop-up appears to confirm definitive deletion. 

 

When no item is selected, only the Empty trash is active

Deleting an element 

When an item is deleted (Page, Resource or Folder type), it is moved to the Recycle Bin.

The deleted item will then be visible in the recycle garbage can for users with access to the recycle garbage can, regardless of whether the user who deleted it has access to the recycle garbage can.

They will no longer be visible in their original locations.

 

To delete an item (page, resource...) and return it to the recycle garbage can :

Delete desired item

Example: You want to delete the New Arrivals page

Once the content has been deleted, one or more notification windows appear to confirm the deletion.

When the data in the recycle garbage can is out of date, a yellow banner appears to refresh the tool and display all deleted items.

The item is deleted and returned to the recycle garbage can

Catering

Restoring an element (page, resource, etc.) will restore it to its original location in the sitemap and in the same state (same tags, roots, etc.).

Specific case of :

  • If content has been deleted along with the page, it too will be restored. If they had a published version, they will be republished.
  • If the page contained content that was not deleted at the same time as the page, then it will be directly present on the page if it still exists; or it will be removed from the page if it no longer exists. Their publication status will therefore be their current publication status.
  • Subpages are also restored, and the same remarks apply.

The originalURL of the page will be retained if no page exists with this URL. Otherwise, a new URL will be generated.

The page will always be restored as the last element of its parent page. Make sure you place it where you want it.
The order of the restored page's sub-pages is preserved.

To restore a page :

Select the page to restore

Example: The Newcomers page

Click on Restore

A window appears

Click on Yes

The page returns to the last position on its parent page.
