Delete the article

Table of Contents

Overview

This section applies to news, events, articles and announcement links. If you no longer want an article to appear in your news listing(s), you can delete it.

If you’ve used Matrix before, then you know that deleting an asset is easy. However, there is an additional step involved in deleting articles within your Squiz Workplace. The extra step is necessary because we are using Funnelback Push Collections to create our news listings. Using Funnelback Push Collections allows us to provide you with super fast news listings that are always up-to-date and searchable. The trade-off is a two-step process for deleting articles.

The additional step is simply archiving your article before you put it in the trash.
