Delete a page only in the current locale

Q	A
Bug?	no
New Feature?	yes
Sulu Version	1.4.2

Actual Behavior

If you delete a page, it is deleted in any locales.

Expected Behavior

If I delete a page, it should only be deleted in the current locale. I think that's the most common use-case.

Possible Solutions

I think it would be great if we had the option to delete a page in all locales, too.

Maybe the popup when deleting a page could look something like that (of course with better styling):

Or maybe you add an additional button to the popup?

Is there a workaround to delete a page only for the current locale ? Maybe in the database but I can't find the locale field in the phpcr tables.

@sebheitzmann at current state if you don't want to have a specific page online in a specific language you just should unpublish it over the toolbar, then it should not longer be available online.

If you really want to remove or analyse the phpcr data the best way is using the phpcr shell:

bin/adminconsole doctrine:phpcr:shell
# or
app/console doctrine:phpcr:shell

you can then cd <uuid> to the page and then type ls you see then a list of properties the language specific properties are prefixed with i18n:<locale> e.g.:

| i18n:de-authored            | DATE (29)       | 2020-06-30T14:23:50+02:00
| i18n:en-authored            | DATE (29)       | 2020-06-30T14:23:49+02:00

you would need to use node:property:remove <property-name> to remove a specific property. You would need to remove all language specific properties and use the save command to persist your change. That its also removed from the live workspace you would need todo the same with the bin/websiteconsole or app/webconsole depending which sulu verison you use.
