    My field groups are synched using a json file. I had to change the id of one and I ended up with 2 files. One with the old id that was out of synch and 1 with the new id which was synched.

    I assume here the old file should have been deleted automatically.

    I also had to manually go in and delete this old file via FTP as there is no way to delete files in the unsynched menu item (which would be nice to have here).

    Hello Tom,

    Thanks for reaching out.

    Currently, Meta Box supports deleting the JSON file when deleting a field group that is synced with the JSON file. It doesn't have an option to delete JSON files that do not sync with a field group. You can read more about local JSON feature in the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/local-json/
