Summary:
Delete Forum Category
You can delete a forum category to hide from learners and instructors all the forums that were assigned to it. The forums are not deleted, and administrators with access permissions can still view, edit and open them in the Manage Center. You can re-assign affected forums to another forum category, if required.
Deleting a forum category de-assigns any forums that were assigned to it, therefore those forums will no longer be visible to the target audience that was defined for the deleted category. Deleting the category also deletes its target audience.
Administrators with unrestricted access to the Discussion Forum Categories feature in System Roles (Manage Features > Community Manager Features) can delete forum categories.
To delete a discussion forum category
- Go to Manage Center > Communicate > Discussion Forum Categories. The Discussion Forum Categories page opens with a list of forum categories that your user account has read-only or unrestricted access permission for.
- Select Delete from the action menu of the forum category you want to delete, then click OK in the confirmation dialog.
