  btw, i’ve been looking around and some people say a confirmation email was sent to confirm the deletion, but i never got one (or if i did i accidentally deleted it. not in my inbox/ spam/ bin/ etx.) also the “my sites” page says i have no sites but my sites still up when i visit the page?

  Hi there,

  I see that posts on the site have been deleted, but not the site itself.

  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,

  actually, i was referring to another site. i dont rly wanna put its url down here considering i want it to be *gone forever* and not able to be searched for. anyways, i went through all the steps required for deleting a site completely- right up till wordpress asked me to type in my sites url to delete it. and when i view the “my sites” page, it tells me i don’t have any, so is this just a delay in deletion or did something go wrong and how can i fix it? the site is still completely intact with all its posts up. however when i click embedded links it redirects me to dfghjkl00.wordpress.com and tells me it doesnt exist. thanks for your help!

  Hi there,

  I can email you so that you can provide me the URL in private.

  Let me know if that works.

  Thanks!

  Is the one associated with the account you are contacting me from fine? If so, I’ll email you. Otherwise, feel free to provide the email you want me to contact you from. I’m the only one that will be able to see it.

  Thanks!
