Editing a Note Type
To edit a custom note type, click "Edit" from the three-dot menu on that type's row.
Editable
- Name can be changed (must remain unique).
- Icon can be changed.
- Category can be changed.
- Subcategory can be changed.
Not Editable
- Language cannot be changed (fixed after creation).
- System/custom status cannot be changed.
If another type with the same name already exists, you'll see "A note type with this name already exists" error. You must choose a different name.
Archiving a Note Type
Instead of deleting a type you no longer want to use, you can archive it. Archived types cannot be selected for new notes, but existing notes are unaffected.
How to Archive?
Open the three-dot menu on the type's row.
Click the "Archive" option.
Click "Confirm" in the confirmation dialog.
When a type is archived, all active templates belonging to that type are also automatically archived.
After archiving, a 5-second notification appears at the bottom of the screen. Click "Undo" to instantly reverse the action.
Restoring from Archive
To reactivate an archived type:
Switch to the "Archived" tab.
Click "Reactivate" from the type's menu.
When the type is activated, archived templates belonging to that type are also automatically activated.
Deleting a Note Type
When you delete note types, they are moved to trash. This is a soft delete operation - not permanent deletion.
How to Delete?
Open the three-dot menu on the type's row.
Click the red "Delete" option.
Click "Confirm" in the confirmation dialog.
When a type is deleted, all templates belonging to that type (active and archived) are also automatically moved to trash.
In Mindora, every note must belong to a type. This keeps your notes meaningfully grouped and always organized.
Therefore, when a note type is deleted, all notes belonging to that type are automatically migrated to the category's (clinical / personal) default type. The notes' template reference is also cleared (becomes blank template). Your notes never end up without a type.
After deleting, a 5-second notification appears at the bottom of the screen. Click "Undo" to instantly restore the type.
Restoring from Trash
To restore a deleted type:
Switch to the "Deleted" tab.
Click "Restore" from the type's menu.
When the type is restored, deleted templates belonging to that type are also automatically restored.
Important Restrictions
Name Uniqueness
Two types with the same name cannot exist in the same organization and language. This rule applies to active and archived types.
Language is Fixed
A type's language cannot be changed after creation. Separate types must be created for different languages.
