Re: Media Type already in use when no media types present

Deleting items from the GUI just deactivates them in the database. Unfortunately, I don't think there's a way to reactivate Media Types from the GUI. However, you can reactivate them directly from the database: To view deleted (deactivated) media types: SELECT * FROM media_type WHERE NOT active; To reactivate all deleted media types: UPDATE media_type SET active = true WHERE NOT active; Or for a specific media type: UPDATE media_type SET active = true WHERE name="application/pdf" Regards, Mike On 26/05/11 15:32, Ian Gibbs wrote: > Dear all, > > I deleted all the existing media types.
