Delete model without changing files on disk

[Crawford421]

Is this currently possible? I need to clean up some organization without making destructive changes.

Thanks!

Not built-in to the UI, but at the code level, it defaults to preserving all files unless specifically told to remove them.

So,in the Rails console you can run Model.find_param("<model-id-from-url-here>").destroy; that it should remove the record but not touch any files on disk.

I highly recommend making sure you've taken a copy first though before you do that the first time, it's definitely in the "dangerous behaviour" zone.
