Remove disabled project Modified By Toddintr on 7/26/2010 1:00:14 AM

Is there a way to completely remove a disabled project so that it doesn't show up anywhere in the system? If this is not possible through the UI, is it safe to go into the db and delete records from tables? If so, which tables? ;-)

Thank you,

Todd

This would need to be done manually. (Dont think there is a fully implemented Project.DeleteProject(int pid) method in the C# code, open to correction tho, Davin).

Before you do any changes, you must back up your database and take the bugnet website down.

It is possible to use SQL but I hope you know what Foreign Keys are in SQL and how to find them.

Projects are complex things. They have their own issues, categories, statuses, priorities, settings, user rights. Each one has its own table. The sub items need to be cleared

Good news is there is a unique ID for each project and convenient names for the tables. example: BugNet_ProjectCategories

I have mucked about with changing userIDs in the past and had no real problems editing it directly it.
