Remove InternalLink and ExternalLink

[Former Member]

How can I remove the InternalLink and ExternalLink from the CMS Cockpit? So that I only have one Link component.

Technically they are just CMSLinkComponents and in my current project we don't need to distinguish them. Therefore we want to remove them from the component selection, to make it shorter.

Hi Christian,

If You want to remove only internal and external link Components from CMSLinkComponent using hmc:

• Go to "WCMS" - > "Component type group"

• Select group type

• Edit "CMSlinkComponent" from "CMS Component Types"

• Got to Administration tab and remove internal and external component from Item template and save changes

In ImpEx it looks like this:

 UPDATE CMSComponentType; code[unique=true]; cockpitItemTemplates[mode=replace];
 ; CMSLinkComponent ; ;

Or

 REMOVE CockpitItemTemplate; code(code)[unique=true]
                                         ;ExternalLink
                                         ;InternalLink

Use with caution. This will remove CockpitItemTemplates and hence will remove the relation between the CMSLinkComponent and the CockpitItemTemplate.
