  I had let my domain name lapse, and just re-registered it, but now I can’t manage my site. How can I delete the old site, and just start fresh?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  Do you still have access to the old site?

  If you want to permanently delete your site, please follow this guide:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

  Please read the warnings and advice before deleting a site, as we can’t revert a site deletion for any reason.

  If you want to hide your site instead, you can use the following guide to make your site private so only you and other members of the site can view it when logged in:

  Thanks,

  No, settings is not available, as jet pack is out of date, and can’t be upgraded. I probably need an admin at wordpress to delete the site, but can’t find a contact method.

  Ah, are you referring to a self-hosted WordPress.org site? You’ll need to touch base with the site host in order to disable the site. What is the site URL?
