Dear Ryosuke Kumai!

An option is removed from Project Specific Select Field (simple) if no issues are using this value. Otherwise the option gets disabled. This is maybe not so clear from the user interface, because the button always says "Disable". But same functionality is available also in 2.4. Can you check, that an option is deleted, when no issue is using this option and you click on "Disable"?

If you need to edit an option from Project Specific Select Field (simple), you can create a new one, edit all related issues to use this new one via bulk edit, then disable / remove (see above) the old one.

There is also the possibility to edit via SQL. But this then has to be done by the JIRA admin.

For convert from Project Specific Select Field (simple) to Project Specific Select Field, there is currently no migration tool available as part of my plugin. But it is feasable to do via SQL and Rest API. If you are interested in migration, we can together develop a migration path. Could you contact me via email directly?

Best regards, Holger
