Component body

This module allows selected users, based on a permission, to soft delete nodes. To users the operation looks like delete but the node is unpublished. It's useful if you want to prevent accidental deletes or bring back content that wasn't supposed to be deleted.

Note that this is a very simple module, adding just a tab called Delete next to View and Edit on nodes that the user can unpublish. A more advanced and customizable alternative is the Content unpublish module.

Development of this module was sponsored by Adulmec.
