# Sitecore Delete Access Rights

This package enables the "item:removeVersion" access right, 

allowing authors to remove individual item versions without 

allowing authors to delete the entire item. It also allows 

the initial creator of an item to delete his/her own item, 

unless an explicit deny delete access right is applied to 

the item.

[More details in this blog post](https://mikael.com/2017/08/improved-sitecore-delete-item-access-rights/)

## Build and install

Update the nuget package sitecore references if the version

doesn't match your Sitecore version. Compile the solution 

and copy the output dll and the config file to target

instance.

The config file updates the two default authorization providers, 

SqlServerAuthorizationProvider and BucketAuthorizationProvider.

If you've made customization to these providers, this module

needs to be updated accordingly.

## Usage

The module enables the "Remove version" permission in the 

Security Rights dialog. When you need to allow users to delete

item versions, but not the entire item, assign the Remove

version permission accordingly:

![remove version access option](img/remove-version-access-option.png)

The module also enables authors to delete items created by

them selves, unless there are other explicit delete permissions.

Note that the "CreatedBy" field is a versioned field, so the

access right is evaluated based on the very first item version, 

regardless of language.
