Delete Website Tags

Does anyone has an idea where to delete the website tags I just created. I was toying around the website tagging feature and created several tags during the process. Now that I need to finalize my setup, I can't see I can remove those tags created during testing. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Nice catch -- there doesn't appear to be a way to fully delete them; you can only remove them from website entries. I'll file a support request regarding this.

Support request filed; I imagine they can be deleted via the command line, but obviously there should be a way to do this in the GUI. If / when they tell me the commands needed, I'll post them here.

So, support's response was that there was not currently a way to do this from Webadmin. They suggested this concept should be a feature request (I rather disagree in this case, it's missing basic functionality). So... I've added a feature request, I recommend you go in and vote on it. You can find it here: Enable the admin to remove unused Website Tags in Web Filtering

Not a bug, just lack of foresight during feature design. Add points to Bruce's feature request.

I agree that this feature should be available right from the start when the website tag feature was introduced. Lack of foresight indeed. BTW, I already voted on this feature request.

If I recall correctly, once a week (on weekend?) the system will look for unused tags and delete them. Note that this tag must not be referenced by any object in the system.
