Question: Deleting Avatar Clothing from World Memory

I wanted to remove some clothing in my current world via desktop editor to make room and optimize the world. I asked Gemini and he said that even if the physical clothing is deleted, if it is not deleted in the listings of the world, then the texture and info take up part of the 6gb limit. What are the best practices for this? I have tried deleting them completely, but I am scared that it might be deleting the actual item. How do I check? 

Also, if I try to delete some items, I receive a message that it cannot be deleted because an item was sold. I just want to remove clothing and still have it available to purchase, but not in that store.

 

Any help is appreciated.

  • Once an item has been purchased in a world, it cannot be deleted from the commerce menu of that world. You can still remove the ability to purchase it from your world. I do not believe commerce items are taking up memory in your world though. That should only be objects that physically exist within the world.
    It does raise a question about what happens if you just delete the whole world though. 🤔

      I really appreciate your reply. I wanted to keep my world so that I can have one place where everybody can see me at instead of all the others. I'm trying to work more on visits and retention and stuff. Is there anywhere I can read about how to wipe a world completely without deleting it? I tried taking it back to the first day that I built the world but the commerce still had the items in it.
