Issue/Symptoms

Deleting a Live Copy page without detaching excludes it from rollout.

Resolution resolution

A root page of Live Copy has the following property ​​to exclude rollout.

Node: {root of Live Copy Page}/jcr:content/cq:LiveSyncConfig
Properties: cq:excludedPaths (String[ ] )

Deleting a Live Copy page without using the Detach option will result in the page name being added to a property, thereby excluding it from the rollout. Consequently, to include the deleted page in the rollout, one must remove the page name from the property.

Example:
If the following page on the We-Retail is deleted before Detach, then men is added to the cq:excludedPaths property value in Live Sync settings.
You can include the page in the rollout for the page by going to CRX/DE Lite and removing “men” from cq:excludedPaths.

Deleted page：/content/we-retail/us/en/men
Live Copy of root page：/content/we-retail/us/en
Live Sync settings：/content/we-retail/us/en/jcr:content/cq:LiveSyncConfig
