Managing Content


Deleting a Content Block

The Delete command lets you permanently delete obsolete content blocks from your Web site. You can only delete a content block if its status is Approved.

Like publishing, a deleted content block must go through the approval chain before it is removed. If you are the last approver in the approval chain, the content block is deleted immediately. See Also: Approving/Declining Content Blocks

You can delete a single content block or several content blocks in a folder. Both procedures are explained below.
