Saw the topic from Neil Roberts ( [How to add multiple HTML components to a site](https://forums.realmacsoftware.com/t/how-to-add-multiple-html-components-to-a-site/55799)) but unfortunately that still leaves me “confused”.  
I am struggling with this … Did find the tips there, however even when naming them “different” this goes really confusing for me:

The 2 “Instagram” and “FaceBook” components remain “locked together” and now I can no longer even delete the “FaceBook” one !  
I tried ‘context menu-remove’, but the component does not go away anymore.  
Tried to unlink from Globals, rename, etc. but I cannot get rid of it (anymore).  
Anybody have any ideas what to do next? Of course I saved and published this one time too many (my bad …).

Try unlinking the Flex component that they are in, and you should be able to delete.

If that doesn’t work, unlink all the components from the global and try deleting.

Hey Steve,  
thanks for the “rapid” response. That did the trick. Great !  
I tries “unlinking” parts of the Flex and Container above before, and could delete other parts. No idea what that stopped …  
Anyways, the website “out there” is fixed now and we can continue with our event planning.  
Thanks again.
