Remove media from a channel


About

In this guide, we'll show you how to remove media from a channel in your video portal without deleting it from your account. We'll cover steps for both non-Theming and Theming users.

For those interested in upgrading to Theming, visit our article Getting started with the Theming module.

Non-Theming users 

  1. Log into your video portal (aka MediaSpace), and select My Channels from the user menu.

  2. Click on a thumbnail to open the desired Channel.
    The Channel page displays.

  3. Click the three dots menu on the lower right side of the media item you want to remove.
  4. Click the Remove from Channel button (circle with 'x').

    A confirmation message displays: Are you sure you want to remove this item from the channel?
  5. Click Remove to confirm the deletion.

Theming users

For Theming users, removing media from a channel is currently done through the media page as shown below. We are working on adding this feature directly to the channel.

  1. Log into your video portal (aka MediaSpace), and select My Channels from the user menu. 

    The My Channels page displays. 

  2. Click on a thumbnail to open the desired Channel.
    The Channel page displays.

  3. Select the Media tab and click on the desired media's thumbnail.

  4. Click on the three dots menu and select Edit.

  5. On the media editing page, select the Publish tab.
  6. Under Publishing Status, select Private.

    This will unpublish the media from all categories/channels and all other applications.
  7. Click Save.

To keep media published in other categories or channels, leave the published status unchanged and simply uncheck the channel you want to remove it from.

Removing media from a channel will not delete it from your account. To learn more, see Delete an entry and Restore items from the Recycle bin.
