How To: Delete a content item

You sometimes need to delete a content item, where for example, a course has been used for testing, but a new version will be published for the live launch of the course.

Content deletion considerations

You should consider the following when deleting an item:

• You cannot undo a deletion.
• Any learning records associated with the learning item will also be deleted and cannot be retrieved.
• You cannot delete items which are included in a curriculum. You must first remove the item from the curriculum.
  NOTE: This may affect the completion status of the curriculum, if the item is specified as mandatory for curriculum completion.
