Why are my themes still active (bound to) sites?

  Mission: remove some old, unwanted themes in a multisite installation.
  Problem: cant delete them because some old, archived sites were bound to them.
  Solution: delete the old, archived sites first, delete the themes after
  New problem: WP is still claiming that the themes are bound to (active in) the old, unwanted sites. Why?

  Thanks,
  /M

  Hiya, what is the URL of your website?

  Hi –

  It sounds like your site is using WordPress installation rather than being a WordPress.com managed site.

  Check out the differences here:

  WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org

  Help with the WordPress installation comes via https://wordpress.org/support/

  If you are not certain which version of WordPress you have, please post the site URL and we can confirm.
