Hi folks

i need help

v3.10.0

i created a section and have assigned some content objects to this section - now i want to undo this but it isn't possible to delete a section while assignments are existing (that's logical).

So I'm looking in admin interface for a way to re-assign the related objects - but it seems that such a procedure is not provided.

can somebody give me some hints, witch way i can re-assign the related to a section objects.

in documentation i doesn't found any hints only this:

<i>
The "Remove selected" button allows you to remove the sections that are selected using the checkboxes. You should be very careful with this because removing a section might corrupt the system. Make sure that the section you're about to remove is not in use.
</i>

but how to make it, that "the section you're about to remove is not in use." is not described.

if i must detect the database entries and study the crating process of this relation to find out how to re-assign this relations manually from the database?

Hi Bernd,

Could you just assign them back to "standard" section using the admin interface. You would them be able to remove the other section.

Sections are here /section/list

I am guessing it is not that simple...

Let me know

hi
thanx so much - seems it was to simple :-) - i thought that one object can be assigned to some sections - and so my sleepily mind doesn't provide me to this simple logical idea.

thanx will sleep reassured now.

Alternatively, you have an extension that allows you to set the section of each object:
