When unpublishing would move a Spanish version

In Geography, Lucía gave Lección 3 a place of its own in Tema A, though English has Lesson 3 in Topic B. Ben now wants to unpublish Tema A in Spanish.

Unpublishing Tema A would unpublish Lección 3 with it, and Spanish readers would then get Lesson 3 at its English place, in Topic B, in English. Rather than move a row without saying so, the tools refuse the unpublish and name the row in the way.

Try it: select Lección 3 in either column and read what Ben would be told; then select Lección 5 in Module 2, where Ben let it move.

Unpublishing Tema A of Geography, in Spanish

Tema A can't be unpublished in Spanish yet

Lección 3 has its own place inside it. Unpublished, Lección 3 would move to Lesson 3's place in English, in Topic B. Unpublish Lección 3 first, or tell the tools to let it move.

What Ben would be told on unpublishing Tema A while Lección 3 has its own place inside it.

If you tried this

Module 2 has the same shape, and there Ben told the tools to let it move. Ben unpublished Tema C in Spanish, and Lección 5 was unpublished with it. Editors still see Lección 5 in Tema C, with its own place, not published. Spanish readers now get Lesson 5, in English, in Tema D, the unit English has it in. Nothing marks the move afterward: only the tools' answer to the unpublish says which rows moved.

So before you unpublish a unit in Spanish, look inside it for rows with “Own place in Spanish”. Unpublish them first, and Spanish readers get each one at its English place, as you meant; then the unit can go. Or let the tools move them, knowing where each will land.
