Missing Trash?
Permalink
Hi folks, I'm new to Concrete5 and just started building my own theme two days ago. So far things are going okay but I've run into a snag.
I'm trying to delete some page types that were created when I set up my site and I was testing things out and fooling around. But my new theme doesn't use some of these page types and I want to remove them to prevent client confusion later on down the road. When I try to remove them, I get the following:
"You must delete all pages of this type, and remove all page versions that contain this page type before deleting this page type."
I have deleted all pages that use these page types and I have deleted all of the old versions of those pages too. However I still get this error. I have read that I should make sure they are also deleted from my trash. But where exactly is my trash? When I go to Full Sitemap and Page Search, I don't seem to have a trash... I can't find it anywhere. It is not even under Advanced Search.
And in the mean time, while digging around the site I seem to have turned on Advanced Permissions by mistake... and there is no way to undo that? Oh boy!
Thanks for any help you can give me.

you should be able to see the trash by going to the full sitemap and clicking to view system pages.
Nevermind! I finally found it... thanks to this post...

In concrete version 5.5 or greater, deleted pages may be found in the "Trash".
To access the Trash, visit:
Dashboard > Full Sitemap
Click the "Options" button in the upper right corner.

I've done these steps:
Dashboard > Full Sitemap
Click the "Options" button in the upper right corner.
Check "Show System Pages"
and I still don't see a Trash option...
I see Dashboard, Stacks, and Drafts.

Expand the options on full site map. Check on show system pages. Then remove it from trash.
