Deleting Topics

You can delete a topic any time you want. When you delete a topic, be aware of the following.

  • If the topic contains any index keywords, those specific keywords will not be included in the generated index.
  • If other topics contain hyperlinks to the topic you are deleting, you are asked if you want to keep or remove those links. However, even if you have the links removed, the text for the hyperlink remains in the other topic.

How to Delete a Topic

  1. Open the Content Explorer.
  2. All of your topics are displayed under the Content folder (or under subfolders that you have created previously when organizing your topics). Locate and select the topic that you want to delete.
  3. On your keyboard press DELETE.
  4. You may be asked if you are certain you want to send the file to the recycle bin. If so, click Yes.
