Magento 2 : Manually delete a design config from mysql

Question

What tables would I remove rows from if I needed to manually remove design configuration rows from the content > design > configuration page in the Magento 2.2.3 admin panel

We had themes manually removed from the themes table in the database which of course is not the magento way so now I just need to get back on track and fix this so wanted to figure out how to fully remove the entries in the design configuration page.

Answer 1

Go to your theme table and delete the entry for your created theme, remember the id of the theme from here.

Then go to your core_config_data table and search for theme and you will get path records like design/theme/theme_id replace your default theme id in it.

Do remember to flush cache using;

php bin/magento cache:flush

EDIT :

The final issue was with indexers, so don't forget to reindex your indexes to update your design configuration grid using following command ;

php bin/magento indexer:reindex
