    I’ve gone through the forum on this topic (delete link missing from theme details page) and see that it’s been a problem for several years. However, I’ve only encountered it over the past 2 months, worked previous to that. Is it a WordPress bug, a browser or plug-in conflict, or ??? The ftp route is an inconvenience that shouldn’t be needed.I hope that the development team addresses this soon.

  • This is not a support question. Themes should not be able to be deleted from the backend. FTP is the best option.

    Thanks, Jay. Got it and I did it, but my questions is why can’t WordPress provide that option? I believe it was previously available. Not everyone who uses WP is familiar with ftp.

    What are you saying is missing?
    You can delete installed themes from the admin Appearance page, as long as it’s not the active theme. You have to click on the theme to show the details, and the Delete link is at the bottom of the details modal.

    Sorry I misspelled your name. I checked again and it’s on the bottom-right theme detail page as I’ve always found it in the past. I’ve looked for it multiple times over the last few days and can’t explain why it was not there. Many thanks for continuing to monitor this board and trying to help.
