I want to delete unwanted customized content references from Portal ( structure and content). I know all the contents we create will get stored in PSPRSMDEFN record, Will it work if i write a delete SQL in the PSPRSMDEFN record? or does it have impact on any other records?
This seems like a pretty dangerous thing to do. Can you do one of the following instead of deleting:
- Hide it from the portal navigation
- Expire the content references you want to hide by setting an expiry date
- Remove all security to the content reference through permission lists
Hi Praj.
Thanks for ur response.
Yes. planning to set expiry date for the contents.
In Application Designer, put them into a project (this will take the most time), then set their upgrade status to delete, upgrade. Export the project to file. Reimport the project from file and treat the file project as the source. This will reimport them and cause all of the ones in the project to be deleted.
You could alternatively figure out the relevant PeopleTools tables and delete from them, but this is quite dangerous and easy to leave a few out and may mess up your entire portal registry.
I have a question, I want to change the "Sequence Number", and copy to other Data Base.
I tried these steps:
1. Change this field in PIA, and add this content ref into project.
2. Copy to file.
3. In another Data Base, Copy from file.
But in this step, I got a error "Duplicated Key …".
Any body knows how to do this?
Thanks.
