When a topic has a line through it... (Deprecated)

[Nikmal]

and I did not put it there. When I hover over it with my mouse it says it is deprecated. How do I get rid of the line through the topic as that is annoying and I want to use those topics as normally.

Was its Category "Package Starting Point"? Those were marked as Deprecated, according to the Release Notes for build 186.

Likely you need to switch it to a different Category, perhaps by duplicating its Category so you can unhook it from the Globally Deprecated one.

(This is one of the reasons I only use custom categories.)


Added: I had a Package Starting Point Topic in one of my test realms, so I started playing with it. RW crashed* when I tried to duplicate the Topic to a different Category and when I tried to duplicate the deprecated Category. I haven't tried just changing its Category to a different one yet because for now I don't want to lose it. (The UI blocks you from duplicating Topics/Articles using Deprecated Categories.)

* Well, threw an exception that wasn't handled until the bug reporter. These are operations that should be allowed, though.

Parody you were correct that is what happened. I managed to change the topic category to another one and it worked well. But trying to copy it to another topic does create a crash too.

Thanks for the advice.

The crashes that have occurred with deprecated categories will be fixed in the next release.
