Question about the categories and uninstall

  • 1. ‘Remove all Content Scheduler data upon uninstal’
    Does this mean it will remove the posts and custom metadata of that post, or only the metadata added by this plugin? I don’t want to loose my posts ??

    2. When I don’t choose a category, will the scheduler just work for all posts on my site? Also, I have more than a thousand categories. Can the column with categories on the options page be collapsed in some way?

    Hi Moxie,
    Wow, I’m sorry I didn’t see this post until now.
    1. The idea is that it will remove all CS data, if you deactivate the plugin and then use “Delete” from the plugins page.
    NOTE: There’s a big difference between “Deactivating” the plugin and “Deleting” it. You can deactivate / reactivate all you want and it will not delete any settings.

    Also, it is intended that it will remove the custom metadata for your posts — the Content Scheduler info — if you choose this “Remove” option and choose “Delete” from plugin screen. (It turns out, right now even as of version 0.9.7, it does not remove that data. I’m not going to make it actually remove post data until I put in a button to “export” and “Import” the data, so you could easily and effectively create a backup.)

    2. I just addressed your issue with the categories in another forum post.
    But, I didn’t realize you had thousands… so for the interface, I will see about, at the very least, not showing a list of categories unless you actually intend to use that list.
    (You don’t need the list of categories on the options page at all unless you intend to make changes to a post’s category list upon expiration.)
    Paul
