Delete link - system administrator

Hi there
In my testing, I've linked myself (as a System Administrator) into some user groups. Normally to remove myself from these groups, it's just a matter of going to the Linking screen and setting a cron job to delete the link(s) at the next run.



However, this doesn't actually occur.



I've tried doing it as myself, and as Root user - to no avail. I've also tried purging the Trash in case that helped, but it didn't.



I'm running v3.12.3.



Any tips would be appreciated!

Do you know if your Matrix cron system is configured and running? Matrix requires your to use linux crontab to run a script every 15mins, which is some server-side setup that is required before Matrix cron will work.


And also, you can remove a user from a group by just deleting the link using the asset map. You don't need to schedule link removals.

I thought if you pressed delete on the user in the group, it sent the whole user to the trash (included all linked instances)? Hence the use of future link deletion. (This is what I was taught at my previous job).

Nope, it only sends one instance to the trash. The only way to send all instances to the trash is the use the linking screen and schedule the deletion of "All Links".


Well you learn something new everyday - thank you :) that worked a treat!
