How do I delete a site?

Updated 2 months ago

While you can't completely delete sites in Simpplr, you can deactivate sites if you are the Site manager/owner, App manager, or System admin. Deactivating a site removes it from Search and removes visibility into content on that site. Members will no longer be notified of the site, and it will not appear on the interface.

To deactivate a site:

  1. Go to your user menu, and from the dropdown select Manage > Sites.

  2. Next to the site you wish to deactivate, click the arrow to open the dropdown menu and choose Deactivate.

  3. You can’t bulk deactivate sites using the checkboxes. When you select multiple sites, the only available bulk action is updating the category from the bottom panel, then clicking Apply. multi.png

  4. You can always reactivate the site(s) by just navigating back to this menu and clicking Activate on any deactivated sites. This will also return the content that was posted on that site.

Note: Site members and followers will not be notified when a site is deactivated. The site will no longer appear in search results, site lists, or anywhere else it was previously shown. As a best practice, Simpplr recommends relocating any important content or files from the site before deactivating it.
