Fresh install of ZC 1.5.5.a downloaded 3 days ago from the main page of this forum. Default catalog products installed. PHP 5.6.x

To support a test of a described method of presenting product within a category that had sub-categories, I linked the two products from the Hardware->Graphics Cards category to the Hardware category by copying each product and selecting to make each a linked product. Generally speaking, the test went well. When I was done testing, I wanted to restore the catalog "sequencing" to the original state by deleting the linked product and leaving behind just the master version of the product.

So from the catalog while viewing the Hardware category, I could see all of the existing sub-categories and the two products added to the end of the list. I selected the X, which presented me with a right side warning about carefully selecting the correct category from which to delete the product and to be sure that the master category ID remained correct. At the bottom I had two choices, a checked check-box followed by straight black text for Hardware and then on the next row a checked check-box that was slightly pushed to the right from the margin and bolded red text (master category) stating Graphics Cards but the text was slightly wrapped around within the field. I was able to click/de-select the black text version check-box, but not the bolded red text. This would mean that I would have deleted the product from the master category rather than the linked category.

I believe this is some form of issue with either CSS or something similar. Device being used was a Blackberry Classic.

To get around this issue I was able to address in two ways, one was to use a SQL statement to remove the product from the products_to_categories table, though that could cause other issues if incorrectly performed, the other was to use the products to multiple categories link manager and delete the linked link from the product. Access to this though in this instance required me to navigate to again copy the product (not available from the delete product menu area). There are other methods to access that additional "option", but that worked for the deletion part.

On another note, when attempting to copy the product as a linked product, the multiple categories link manager did not offer the Hardware category as an option to which the product could be linked, but yet it could be copy linked to that category. Not saying that it's wrong, just different operation between two related areas.
