I can't delete a sim off the gallery! Please help!!!

So there's nothing that makes them go away? Come on, EA!

Still waiting on a fix for this too. It's been a while...

There have been reports that it goes away but not right away.

I had a similar thing happen. As far as I'm aware, this is what I did:

1. Shared a Sim to the Gallery, but realized I'd tagged her as #athletic instead of #active.
2. Went back to my save game file and saved the household again, editing the tag (don't ask me why I did it this way--I'm not sure).
3. Shared the new version.

Now here's the sticky point: I'm not certain at which point I actually unshared the version with the mistaken tag. I don't know if it was before I shared the new version or after I shared the new version.

Regardless, the initial version (with the #athletic tag) is "stuck" in my gallery. Oh, the unshare button is there, and I can click it, and it appears to go away (accepting the warning message, etc.), but that's just a trick of the UI, because it never truly does go away. It is always there when I refresh my profile or the community search.

I'd be happy to know if there's a way to clean this up, even though it's not a big deal in my case.

I had the same problem today, and all you have to do is:

1.Open Origin

2.Left click to the Sims 4

3.Click repair game

4.Then run Sims 4

5.Open gallery

6.Remove what you want from the community without bug

Hope it helps, have a great day Simmers! mileyvery-happy:

Thanks for that.

Another of these weird: it's solved by repairing the game bugs ... hmm .. why does it happen in the first place ?

[sundayrose123]

I have no idea, i tried everything to solve it and at the end this was my one and only solution.

i got same issue cant remove stuff from my catalog and needs a tidy up

Repairing doesn't help my situation, but I think my particular case is a little different.  I had shared some test lots months back and at some point decided to clean them up.  I removed them from the Gallery (or so I thought - the interface seemed to indicate it worked), and then I deleted them from my library.  However, later when I looked at my catalogue on the Community tab, they were still there.  And there they remain, no matter what I do.  But it's clearly not a local issue, because they don't exist on my local system.
