Deleting or Recovering a Deleted Story
When an iNEWS story is deleted, it is sent to a folder labeled Dead (the Dead queue), from which an administrator can retrieve it for a limited amount of time. This time frame is pre-determined based on a purge interval set for that queue by each site’s system administrator.
To delete a story:
1. Select the story.
2. Click the Pane Menu button located at the top right corner of the Queue/Story pane.
3. Select Delete Story.
If you delete a story and the preferences were set in your iNEWS client or configuration to provide a confirmation of the action, MediaCentral UX displays a message asking you to confirm the delete operation. Click OK to delete the story or Cancel to leave the story in the queue. For more information, see “Setting Confirmation Preferences” in the Avid iNEWS User’s Guide.
If you want to recover a deleted story, contact your system administrator to retrieve it from the Dead queue. After the story is purged from the Dead queue, it cannot be retrieved.
