|
|
|
When you remove a resume or cover letter, it goes to **Trash** instead of disappearing. It stays there for 30 days, so you can bring it back if you change your mind.
|
|
|
|
## Move a document to Trash
|
|
|
|
On Documents, open the document's **⋯** menu and choose **Move to Trash**. In the editor, open the document name menu at the top left and choose **Move to Trash**; you return to Documents.
|
|
|
|
Reactive Resume doesn't ask you to confirm, because the move can be undone. A message appears at the bottom of the screen. Select **Undo** to put the document back straight away.
|
|
|
|

|
alt="A message reading One-Page Resume (copy) moved to Trash with an Undo button"
|
|
/>
|
|
</Frame>
|
|
|
|
While a resume is in Trash, its public link stops working. Restoring it brings the resume back as it was.
|
|
|
|
<Note>Locked documents can't be moved to Trash. Choose **Unlock** in the document's menu first.</Note>
|
|
|
|
## Open the Trash
|
|
|
|
Once Trash holds something, a **Trash** item with a count appears at the bottom of the sidebar. Select it to open the Trash page.
|
|
|
|
<Frame caption="Trash in the sidebar">

src="/images/guides/using-the-trash/trash-in-sidebar.webp"
|
|
alt="The Trash item in the sidebar with a count of 1"
|
|
/>
|
|
</Frame>
|
|
|
|
You can also open the [command bar](/guides/using-the-command-bar) with <kbd>⌘</kbd> <kbd>K</kbd> (<kbd>Ctrl</kbd> <kbd>K</kbd> on Windows and Linux) and choose **Trash**, or go to `https://rxresu.me/dashboard/trash`. Self-hosters use their own address.
|
|
|
|
The Trash page lists each document with its **Type**, linked **Application**, and how many days are left under **Deleted in**. When it's empty, it says **Trash is empty**.
|
|
|
|
## Restore a document
|
|
|
|
<Steps>
|
|
<Step title="Open the row's menu">
|
|
On the Trash page, select **⋯** at the end of the document's row.
|
|
|
|
<Frame caption="The Trash page with a row's menu open">
|
|
<img src="/images/guides/using-the-trash/trash-page-row-menu.webp" alt="The Trash page listing One-Page Resume (copy) with 30 days left and a menu showing Restore and Delete now" />
|
|
</Frame>
|
|
|
|
</Step>
|
|
<Step title="Choose Restore">
|
|
Select **Restore**. The document goes back to Documents with its content, tags and links intact.
|
|
</Step>
|
|
</Steps>
|
|
|
|
## Delete a document for good
|
|
|
|
Documents are deleted permanently 30 days after you moved them to Trash. To delete one sooner:
|
|
|
|
<Steps>
|
|
<Step title="Choose Delete now…">
|
|
On the Trash page, open the row's **⋯** menu and choose **Delete now…**.
|
|
</Step>
|
|
<Step title="Confirm">
|
|
Select **Delete now** to confirm, or **Keep in Trash** to change your mind.
|
|
|
|

|
|
</Frame>
|
|
|
|
</Step>
|
|
</Steps>
|
|
|
|
<Warning>
|
|
A deleted document can't be restored, and neither can its version history. If you might need it again, download a JSON
|
|
copy first (see [Exporting your resume](/guides/exporting-your-resume)).
|
|
</Warning>
