Why would I want to replace my published model in HomeByMe?
It's very likely that you are reading this because you made some improvements to your model that you originally published and want to update it in HomeByMe. Once a model is published, it cannot be changed. The name and description can be edited, but the actual model will need to be removed entirely and replaced with the updated version. This is also a helpful workflow if you decide you no longer wish for other Makers to be able to add your creation to their home designs.
Delete from HomeByMe Workflow:
- Make sure you have published the model to HomeByMe
- If your model is particularly complex or has many materials, it may take several minutes for your model to index and be visible in HomeByMe. Don't worry, your post isn't missing!
- Navigate to "My Profile", then select "My Content"
- Hover over the model you would like to edit until the icon becomes visible
- Select the delete icon
- Select "delete" on the warning dialogue
- Navigate back to Swym and delete your post too, if you want to. Similar to editing a Swym post, the delete button should be right next to it on the drop down arrow menu.
No harm will be done by leaving the old Swym post up, it is completely your decision whether to remove it or not. To replace the model, you will need to republish, just like how you did it originally.
