# Delete a Beacon

Whatfix enables you to delete Beacons that are no longer useful to you.

          **Note**:

          

- You can only delete Whatfix content and widgets in the Draft and Ready stages.
- When a copy of your content in Draft or Ready also exists in Production, deleting the Draft or Ready version does not affect the content in Production.

Info:

To delete one or more Beacons in Production, [remove the Beacon Segment from Production](/studio/docs/disable-a-beacon-segment), and then follow the steps in this article.
