- How does that affect existing content, and new content.
- What about the reverse? Can you remove a field?
- What happens to the data that is already in the database?
- Can you undo configuration that you’ve created with CINC?
- How do you prevent site admins from disabling the module and deleting their content types?
- CINC YAML
