$Content->delete()

Deletes the content record, all comments, tags, flags, and files.

Any child documents of the deleted record will have their parent record set to null.

NOTE that this function currently does a hard, permanent delete on this data. In some future version of PeoplePods, this will be changed to do a soft-delete, leaving the data behind, but marking it as inactive.

By default, this function pays attention to the isEditable() function. However, you can override this by passing in a true variable. This should only be done in administrative settings.

$content->delete(true); // override isEditable.
