Just Lost Everything

Yes, I’ve confirmed that here - https://github.com/xibosignage/xibo/issues/1229

It’s impossible to delete the affected ticker/dataSet view widget from the web ui, it is however possible to delete it via API

If you don’t have postman (or similar) application added to your CMS, now is a good time to do it, instructions are here - 1.8 API Introduction

Now in regards to this particular issue, we will need to remove the ticker widget via API.

1 - Get to know the playlist id, to do that we will use the following call

GET {{url}}/api/layout?layout=YOURLAYOUTNAME&embed=regions,playlists

Please replace the ‘YOURLAYOUTNAME’ with your affected layout name to filter the results of the call.

Get the correct playlist id from the response

2 - Get to know the widget ID we want to remove, we will use the following call

GET {{url}}/api/playlist/widget?playlistId={playlistId}

Please replace the {playlistId} with the id of your playlist

3 - Delete the affected ticker id from the playlist, we will use the following call

DELETE /playlist/widget/{widgetId}

Replace the widgetId, with the id of your affected ticker widget.

If something needs clarification, please do let me know.
