I have previously set up triggers, workflows and events to allow an administrator to approve content that a member of the website has changed.

However now I want to remove these workflows, triggers and events and have deleted them using the admin section of ezpublish. This should allow members to update content without the admin haveing to approve it.
Now when i log in as a member and change some content it is still getting added to the collaboration section of the ezpublish admin section and the changes are not being made directly.

Is there a way i can manually delete these triggers,workflows and events or a way of turning collavoration off?

Can anyone spot anything obvious that i am missing?

Thanks in advance,
Trev

I have had a look at everything in detail now and here is the current situation.

It seems that the previous workflow groups have been deleted from the system through the ez admin interface. However, I suspect that this did not delete the actual workflows and events associated with the workflow group, as members posts still go through the ez approve event.

I presume what i need to do is delete the existing (hidden) workflows & event that are causing the problem.

Does anyone know are these workflows and events are stored in the database. If, so what table are they in and is it safe to delete them manually?
Can i turn of ez_approve events/collaboration globally so that no ez_approve events / collaboration occur?

I would appreciate any suggestions that you may have.
Thanks,
Trev
