TWiki Administration

The current implementation of TWiki is designed to never forget. So you can't delete a topic, however you can move or rename a topic and the original information is saved in topic meta data. If you want an even stronger memory, you can disable renaming on some or all topics; see TWikiAccessControl.

How to Rename or Delete a Web

It is advisable not to rename the TWiki.Main web.
Be aware that other webs might link to the web you want to rename / delete. Search each web for links to this web, i.e. search all webs for Obsolete. (include the period, this is to find topics like Obsolete.SomeTopic ). Take measures if necessary.
Edit the TWikiPreferences topic and rename / delete the web from the WIKIWEBLIST variable.
Edit the TWikiWebsTable topic and rename / delete the web from the table.
Telnet to the TWiki installation.
cd to twiki/data and rename / delete the web directory.
cd to twiki/templates and rename / delete the web directory if present.
cd to twiki/pub and rename / delete the web directory if present.
