Delete Components After Publication

Edit • Workspace • Delete

Components deleted after publishing a Node will remain publicly available in previous versions of the Node. The new version will not contain the component any more, but viewers can still find them by checking the old Node versions or the original dPID path.

You can delete Node components from your Node Workspace the same way after publication as before. The only difference is that components/files deleted before publication will not be visible, whereas those deleted after will remain online in older versions of your Node.

To delete a component you've previously uploaded to your Node, open up the Node Drive Panel panel by clicking the hamburger icon in the top left corner.

In the Drive tab, hover over the component or folder you wish to delete, and click on the three dots that appear next to the component or folder name.

From the mini-list that pops up, click on Delete at the bottom.

A pop-up window will ask you if you want to delete the component/folder:

To confirm this step, hit OK in the pop-up window. This will delete your component/folder.

NB: It might take a refresh for the change to show.
