Restore Topic to original protected state

I have messed with the default Diety topic (5E) before the new and improved topic definition was in place, and wonder if it is possible to restore the realm/topic/category to it's original (protected) state?
I came across a post that said "Also, if memory serves, when the category protection feature was added, LWD stated that at some point we would also be able to restore a category to its default structure. I'm not sure what the ETA is for the feature, but I'm guessing/hoping that it's implemented around the same time that sharing is enabled."

Any ideas?
 
First you need to delete all the snippets you want to get rid of from existing topics. Then you can delete the snippet from the category definition. You may be able to sort on tags to identify the snippets you need to purge.

As for placing the "protected" back on the category? No clue. It does't really do anything that I'm aware of.
 
Restoring protection to a category is not yet supported. There are some significant complexities involved, and we've only had a few users ask for it, so we've focused on other things that are a higher priority to a larger number of users.

Much of the time, if you've got protection removed from a category, you'll still be OK. Occasionally, it will result in new section definitions and/or snippet types being appended at the end instead of being inserted into their "proper" position, but that's readily corrected by just changing the sequence around yourself within the category. So the ramifications of having protection removed are not usually significant. We've managed to solve that potential gotcha relatively well and greatly mitigate those ramifications. :)
