Steps to reproduce

1. Create a matrix field that can include itself.
2. Add matrix field to another matrix field currently in use in an entry.
3. Use the field in an entry. (Uncertain whether it's also necessary to include the new matrix in itself.)
4. Delete the new matrix field without removing it anywhere else.
5. View entry that used new field.

Expected behavior

Deletion should cascade to entries where the field is in use.

Actual behavior

Entries now throw the above error: Invalid entry type ID.

As a note, the problem was resolved after I ran garbage collection in the console with gc/run. However, this should really happen automatically.

Hi, thanks for reaching out! I’m having trouble replicating this behaviour. Could you describe how to replicate it in more detail?
