Edit or Delete Profiling Values

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

If you regularly delete outdated profiling values, it will be easier to know which ones to use.

Note

When a profiling 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 profiling value from an attribute, see Add or Remove Profiling Values.

To edit the name or delete a profiling value:

  1. Select the element in the topic.

  2. Place the cursor in the Element Structure Menu below the toolbar.
