Bulk Removing of Pages

jhempel24 · 08-11-2010, 05:35 AM

Hey everyone, I'm new to using Sigil, and I was wondering if there was a way to bulk remove pages. After editing, I've got alot of blank pages (around 95) and would rather not click...hit delete...click yes...for each one.

Any help would be appreciated!!

Thanks!!w

I separated 10 books that were in one epub file and I had to do it page by page. There was no way that I could find to delete multiple pages

. I did find it easier to click on the page with one hand and then hit delete + enter (yes) on my keyboard with the other really fast.

Find whatever is making it in Code View. Search for it, and Replace with nothing.

I believe these are empty (of visual content) splits and book view is where the delete is being doneTo the OP
When you delete/or rename a split in the book browse, a whole lot goes on behind the scenes.
Rename, finds every usage and "corrects it to the new value.
I know Delete, removes the reference in the NCX file, (scince I have never deleted a referenced split, I can not guess what happens to their usage)

You CAN delete as you go.

But IF you delete, do NOT use a "Sigil Split" again until you Save and Re-open the book file (not just the split), there is a bug that can mess up the placement of the new split.
