Steps to reproduce

  1. Start with a site that has a Premium Theme
  2. Visit https://wordpress.com/settings/general/
  3. Attempt to delete the site
  4. A warning appears that the site cannot be deleted as it has Premium upgrades
  1. Click the Manage Purchases button.

What I expected

To be able to cancel the upgrade from Purchases, as instructed in the warning on the Settings page.

What happened instead

Purchases does not show any option to cancel a Premium Theme upgrade, making it impossible to delete a site with a premium theme without staff help.

Screenshot / Video

Message on Settings page:

site_settings_ _site_title_ _wordpress_com

Upgrade showing on Purchases, but not showing any option to remove the upgrade.

purchases_ _manage_purchase_ _wordpress_com

Context / Source

User posted in the public forums about being unable to delete their site due to this.

Had 3 requests in one week for help with this in 805706-f. It appears more people want to cancel upgrades/delete sites at this time of the year - this is a definite spike in support requests on this issue.

I'm not sure if allowing users to cancel Premium themes will cause more support issues with it being accidentally deleted on a site they wanted to keep it on and we're intending to delete and we should instead just allow users to delete a site with a premium theme active with appropriate warnings.

Good point, @kriskarkoski. If I'm not mistaken, that's how it used to work - I've seen SAs showing Premium themes on deleted sites, so it must have been possible at one point.

For clarity on the above idea, I opened a new issue at #17012 to reflect the preferred option of allowing the site to be deleted with the theme active with proper warning rather than allowing premium themes to be canceled from Purchases, which could have unintended consequences with accidental cancelations on sites not intending to be deleted. Marking this issue as closed.
