I need to delete a shared folder, why the delete button is greyed/disabled?
Shared folder configurations can be used across different services. If you need to remove a shared folder configuration you need to unlink it from every service is attached to it before the delete button becomes available. At the moment there is no internal database backend that can display information about which service is holding which shares.

I want to experiment with |omv| or make changes to the code
As a true open source system you can do whatever you want with it. The recommendation is you don't do it in your home appliance server to avoid breaking the web interface. The best thing to do is to use a Virtual Machine. In `Sourceforge <http://sourceforge.net/projects/openmediavault/files/vm/VirtualBox%20images/>`_ you can find a preconfigured OpenMediaVault virtual disk ready to launch.
