Objects

Delete an object

Moliri has three different actions that could all be called deleting. If you can tell them apart, you will get a fright less often.

ActionEffectReversible
Move to the trashThe Wahl is set to Trash. Taken out of the selection, values remainyes, completely
Remove the linkRemoved from this project. Values remain and are still visible in other projectsyes, completely
Delete for goodOnly by supportno

Move to the trash

  1. Open the object menu (☰) on the object preview.

  2. Choose Delete object and confirm the prompt Move object to the trash? with Delete.

The entry only appears if you have write access to the field Wahl. Where the field Wahl is in the layout, you can also set it to Trash there.

For many objects at once: bulk edit with the field Wahl and Replace.

The trash applies per project

An object can be in the trash in one project and active in another. If you move a withdrawn loan to the trash in the exhibition, you do not take it out of the loan request.

Restore

  1. At the bottom left of the project page’s footer, set the Wahl filter to Trash. The options are All objects, 1st choice, 2nd choice, 3rd choice and Trash.

  2. Open the object menu (☰) on the object and choose Restore object, or set the Wahl to 1st choice.

If the field Wahl has been hidden in setup, the footer shows the toggle Show trash instead (and Leave trash to go back).

Footer of the project page with the Wahl filter expanded: All objects, 1st choice, 2nd choice, 3rd choice and Trash.

If the object does not belong in this project but does belong in another: Assign projects and deselect the project. The values remain; when you link the object again, they are back.

The last link cannot be removed. An object must be in at least one project.
