Remove top-level nodes
Remove top-level nodes
Monday 13 August 2012 1:03:32 am - 3 replies
Been playing around with the Data Import extension and have cleverly managed to somehow import objects as top-level nodes.
Now I know that you can't remove top-level nodes from eZ Publish easily, but is there an easier way than direct removal from the DB (which can be problematic)?

Hi Geoff,
Try eep ( https://github.com/mugoweb/eep )
You might get the clean-up done in a one-liner.
There are a couple blog posts with some introductory examples:

I'm keen to be more helpful, so feel free to catch me on skype.

HI Geoff.
I believe you can write a script that simply first moves moves all nodes with a parent of 1 that is not one of the defaults (2,5,43) to any other location:
I would first try: eZContentObjectTreeNodeOperations::move as it does all of the extra work for you. But if this has some security in it preventing you from moving them, then you could try the ezcontentobjecttreenode::move directly.
