How to remove a symbol generated by a CMS in Webflow
If you're working with a CMS (Content Management System) in Webflow and need to remove a symbol that was dynamically generated, you can follow these steps:
Select the symbol: Identify the symbol you want to remove from your CMS-generated content. This could be a dynamic list, dynamic embed, or any other element that is being repeated across multiple instances.
Disconnect symbol: In order to remove the symbol, you need to disconnect it from the CMS dynamic binding. To do this, click on the symbol and navigate to the Element Settings panel on the right-hand side of the editor.
Unbind from CMS collection: Within the Element Settings panel, you'll see an option to bind the element to a CMS collection. This is denoted by a small chain link icon. Click on the icon to remove the binding.
Confirm detachment: Once you've clicked on the chain link icon, a prompt will appear asking you to confirm the detachment from the CMS collection. Click "Yes" to proceed.
Remove symbol: With the symbol now disconnected from the CMS, you can safely remove it from your project. Simply select the symbol and hit the "Delete" key on your keyboard or use the right-click menu to delete it.
By following these steps, you can successfully remove a symbol generated by a CMS in Webflow.
