Deleting Option Values

[burnsy44]

Hi.

 

I want to delete some product Option Values from my catalog but I can't, instead I get the warning:

 

"This option has products and values linked to it - it is not safe to delete it."

 

and the only option I have is to CANCEL the delete request.

 

I don't care about the attached product values ... how can I override this, or do I actually have to write an SQL query just so I can delete these Product Options ?

 

Would this be considered a design flaw ?

You must delete all of the ones at the bottom first then the ones on the right then the left

It isn't a design flaw, it's a safeguard to stop you accidentally deleting a value that is in use. You need to delete all instances of it from the products attributes table first, then you can delete the value.
