Delete Branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?

Describe the feature you'd like
Currently, when you remove a chapter, all the pages inside are moved to the book. I would like a way to choose whether I want them moved up or actually removed (a checkbox with a clear description).
Describe the benefits this feature would bring to BookStack users
When you want to clean up some stuff, it's really annoying to have to delete all the pages of a chapter before removing the chapter.

Hi @bendem,
Thanks for the suggestion.
To be honest, I'd prefer not to have an option as these kind of options can quickly complicate things.
As of v0.31 and the inclusion of the recycle bin, the default logic will be changing here. Deleting a chapter will now also delete the pages within (All get sent to the recycle bin).
This means that within v0.31 (Once released):
Does that sound like it'd suit your flow?

That's perfect. Better than the original idea.

@bendem Great, Thanks for confirming. In that case I'll close this off since the new functionality has been implemented and will be part of v0.31 which should be released before the end of the year.
