CMS: Deleting Items in a Collection

1 min
You can remove an item from your CMS (Content Management System) collection whenever you like. If the content is in both the optional Sandbox and Live collection, you need to delete the item in both locations. You can learn more about the Sandbox feature here.
Important:
If you have the optional Sandbox enabled, syncing your Sandbox collection does not remove the item from the Live collection.
Note:
Before deleting an item, make sure you don't have any dynamic pages or references in another collection connected to it, as once the item is deleted, these links or references will break.

To delete an item:

  1. Go to CMS in your site's dashboard.
  2. Click the relevant collection.
  3. Select the checkbox next to the item you want to delete.
    Tip: To select multiple items at once, select the first item you want to delete, hold down the Shift key on your keyboard and select the last item you want to delete.
  4. Click Delete.
  5. Click Delete to confirm.
