Delete a draft

How to delete a draft in LiquidoDocs Explorer and what happens depending on the code status.

Deleting the draft

A draft can be deleted when you no longer want to keep the prepared changes.

Deleting the draft has different effects depending on whether the code is still in “pre” status or already has one or more published revisions.

Code in pre status

If the code is still in “pre” status, deleting the draft means completely deleting the code. This happens because there is not yet any published revision to keep.

Code with published revisions

If the code already has published revisions, deleting the draft removes only the current work. Previous revisions remain available and accessible.

Use the trash button

To delete a draft, select the code and press the trash button in the revisions section.

After pressing the trash button, Explorer shows a confirmation request. The message explains what is about to happen so you can check the action before continuing.
