Improve Deletion of Objects

1 Requirements

After the selection of objects (subtrees) for deletion in the repository, ILIAS shows a table with further information about all subobjects:

• Type of objects
• Title and description
• Number of (visible) subobjects for containers
• Notifcation about missing delete-permission

A table filter is implemented with the following elements:

• Title
• Object-type (multi selection)

It will be possible to select single objects for deletion.

The deletion-process will be implemented as background process - similar to copying - to avoid timeouts.
A progress-bar will be implemented to show the current status of the deletion

3 Discussion

JourFixe, ILIAS [jourfixe], August 17, 2015: We appreciate the feature and scheduling it for 5.1 but ask for some changes / improvements:

• The entry point should be the "Manage" screen of the current container.
• A new button should be offered in the toolbar to enter the screen. Label could be "Filter View".
• All manage actions should be available: Delete, Copy, Link.

Kaiser, Sascha [skaiser] We appreciate the feature also! Very good idea.
A little bit like Capira > http://capira-solutions.com/

Zenzen, Enrico [ezenzen], 24 AUG 2022: This request no longer fulfills the requirements of the Feature Wiki. In consultation with the maintainer I change the status of the feature request to "Redundant / outdated". If the request is still relevant, please update template and mockups.
