Unable to delete variables
I can't seem to delete variables. I go to the Manage Variables tab > Select checkbox for the variable I need to delete > Select "Delete" from the drop down box > Click Submit. The page refreshes but the variable is still there.
Low Variables 1.3.2. Expression Engine 1.6.8.

Awesome. Thanks!

I'll release a new version soon, but in the meantime, you can fix it with these steps:
- Open up mcp.low_variables.php in a text editor
- Go to line #1365. You'll see:
$this->_delete_confirmation($vars);
- Change that to:
return $this->_delete_confirmation($vars);
- Save file
- Fixed!

Confirmed that works for me too :)

Just released v1.3.3, which includes the fix.

Hi Low, I'm running EE 2.2.2 and Low Variables 1.3.7.
I"m noticing this same problem - I can't delete any of my variables. If I try, they usually end up getting moved into the "Ungrouped" group. I haven't tried the workaround you mentioned, but I wanted to see if this bug has been reopened.
Thanks!!

Hi Manoj,
Are you using LibrarEE or another snippet/var sync add-on?
Manoj 9 Sep 2011 20:38
Aha, LibrarEE is the issue. Adding a '--' to the LV will delete it.
Thanks!

Cool, glad it's working now.
