Deleting Pages in BlogEngine.Net

February 1, 2008 00:51 by ptumelty

I've been using BlogEngine.Net for a couple of weeks now and I've been very impressed with what I've seen. I'm finally able to update my website without needing to resort to SmartFTP!

Overall it's a very intuitive system, but one thing which I couldn't work out for ages is how to delete a page.  Deleting a post is obvious, if you are logged in as admin/editor, you can see the delete link next to the post options. Pages are slightly different. By default they don't show up anywhere on your site (unless you explicitly add them) so there is no easy link to delete. Also, if you go into the admin area and click Pages, the only UI available is to edit an existing page or create a new page.

The only way I can see to delete a page is to edit it, save it (this previews the page) and then go to the bottom of the page and there are two links, edit and delete. You can guess which one to click!

It's not obvious (to me at least, althout it is 1:00am) how to delete them. Maybe this is something that could be looked at in R1.4 or beyond.

Just in case you have to revert to SFTP for file management I would recommend you have a look at www.dscoduc.com/.../...H-to-manage-your-blog.aspx.
