Page Deletion Permission

Specify the page deletion permission according to the four types of deletion methods.

  • Send a page to the trash (Only the page).
  • Send a page to the trash (Including the descendant pages).
  • Permanently delete a page (Only the page).
  • Permanently delete a page (Including the descendant pages).

You can select the setting from the following options for "Only the page" and "Including the descendant pages".

  • Only the page

    • Choose from: Anyone can perform the action, Only administrators can perform the action, Administrators and page authors can perform the action.

  • Including the descendant pages

    • Choose from: Same as "Only the page", Only administrators can perform the action, Administrators and page authors can perform the action.

If you select the Same as "Only the page" option for "Including the descendant pages", the same type of deletion process settings apply. Also, "Including the descendant pages" are always forced to have more restrictive settings than "Only the page".

TIP

The option that was set as "Permanently delete a page" in v4.5 or earlier is inherited as "Permanently delete a page (Only the page)" in v5.0 or later.

User homepage deletion

When deleting a user, the user homepage (/user/username) and its subordinate pages are also completely deleted. If disabled, the user homepage is not deleted when the user is deleted.

WARNING

Initialization of user homepages when a user registers

  • If a user's homepage already exists when the user registers (for example, if the /user/foo page already exists when the user foo registers), the user homepage will be initialized regardless of whether this setting is ON or OFF.
    • Once initialized, the /user/foo page and its subordinate pages are completely deleted and replaced by the newly registered user.
    • This specification has been changed since GROWI v6.2.0.
