Edit or Delete a Filter Value

You can edit or delete a filter value if needed. Before you do, make sure that all content that uses it is checked in. To find topics that use a specific filter value, see Search for Attributes.

If you regularly delete outdated filter values, it will be easier to know which ones to use.

Note

When a filter value is deleted it will be removed from all content that uses it. The action is irreversible.

Tip

If you only want to deselect a filter value from an attribute, see Remove Filters.

To edit the name or delete a filter value:

  1. Select the element in the topic.
