[Bug 605705] [NEW] More information when deleting a view

 

Public bug reported:

Hello,

"Do you really want to delete this View? It cannot be undone." –> Some
users may ask if their files and blog entries will also be lost when the
view is deleted.

Maybe a sentence should be added along the lines of "All your files and
blog entries that you linked in this view will still be available.
However, if you have written text directly into text boxes, this will be
gone."

BUT if text boxes also get the artefact status then the second sentence
becomes redundant.

Maybe we can also provide a link to the portfolio export. That could be
used as backup (they could always do an HTML export to freeze their
portfolio in time). E.g. "If you want to create a copy of your portfolio
in the state it was in before deleting, you may want to
[link]export[/link] it before you delete this view."
