Scalar 2 User's Guide

Deleting unwanted books and users on a custom Scalar install

If you’re a super admin on your Scalar installation you’ll have access to a suite of management tools in the “Tools” tab of your Scalar dashboard (see instructions on making oneself a super admin in the Scalar install doc). Among these are tools for deleting selected books and users on your Scalar installation. 

To delete books on your Scalar installation, click “Generate” next to “List all books” in the “Tools” tab, select the book or books you’d like to delete by ticking the box next to each title in the resulting list, and click “Delete selected books.”

To delete users and all books associated with their account, click “Generate” next to “List all users” in the “Tools” tab, select the user or users you’d like to delete by ticking the box next to their user name in the resulting list, and click “Delete selected users and books they author.” Use this tools with extreme caution as it will delete every book authored by the user including those books on which they are co-authors.
