Delete a blog
-
How do I delete one of my sites? I am registered as RaulKuk and I have the site FutebolemFamilia, wich I want to delete, but the DELETE SITE option is not visible on my dashboard. How do I proceed?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

To delete a WordPress.COM blog you must be logged in under the exact same username account that registered the blog.
You must be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard.Clicking this link should display all your blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden
If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibilityIf you have lost your log-in information you can visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
Your last resort is the account recovery process first and then delete the blog. See here for account recovery http://en.support.wordpress.com/account-recovery/ Complete as much information as you can. If you do not have access to or don’t know the email address linked to the account that owns the blog, please check the box on the recovery form next to “I don’t know my registered email or username.” Then, fill out the rest of the form with the URL of the blog and your contact email address, and submit the form to the Account Recovery Staff, so they can contact you by email ie. not on these public support forums which are available to everyone with internet access.
To prevent accidental or inadvertent deletion of blogs, there are multiple warnings given that blog deletion is permanent and irreversible. Lastly, a verification link is sent in an email and must be clicked to delete a blog. If clicking that link does not work then copy and paste it into your upper browser window and click.
