Whenever I try to delete my World it says it can't be done because I still have a Manuscript associated with that world. However, there are no Manuscripts in my Library, they are all deleted.

Steps to Reproduce

Go to configuration. Delete World. Manuscript message is present.

Operating System

Windows

Browser

Google Chrome

Same error. Please advise. World name "DELETE THIS".

Having the same issue. Cannot delete the world without deleting manuscripts. Every time I try, another manuscript is added to the list. Currently, I have 8 manuscripts tied to this world now.

Same problem here. Manuscrit are invincible. Deleted manuscrit go to Bin/Trash. But I can't empty Trash folder. Manuscrit alive forever, ever, ever.

Similar issue for me. In my case, when I go to delete my manuscript, it gives me the successful "Your Manuscript has been deleted." prompt, but after scrolling down, I see that it is still there and I am still unable to delete my world.

Still alive. I have 2 shadow/invisible manuscrit in my old world. Because that, I can't delete the world.
