Many users log into Joomla admin panel for the first time and are able to intuitively find out how to create an article and how to remove it. All you need to do is to find the tab Content and click on it and then use the buttons at the top of your screen. But to be specific, let us explain in detail how to remove an article in Joomla.
Joomla allows you to Unpublish and Trash articles with a remarkable ease. Unpublish, naturally, means remove from view but keep it in the database whereas Trash...well, trash means delete. If you are new to Joomla it is advisable not to Trash anything in the first couple of months but rather Unpublish, just to be on the safe side.
To completely remove an Article, select the Articles that you want to delete and move them to the Trash. Next, open the Article Trash in the Content Menu and select the Articles you want to delete. After deleting an Article, it is no longer available as it has been deleted from the database and it is not possible to undo this operation.
