  Hello, I would like to start over with my blog. I want to delete all of the content but not the site itself. Can you assist with this?

  Thank you!

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

  Hi Brittany,

  If you’d like, I can empty all the content from your blog for you. However, I want to warn you that this is permanent and can’t be undone — once I empty the blog, all your blog posts, pages, uploaded media, tags, and categories are gone forever. Would you like me to go ahead and do that for you?

  If you’d like more control over exactly what is deleted, you can use the DIY method mentioned in our guide to Empty a Site. Please let me know if you have any questions about that. :)

  Thank you Rachel! I exported the content I wanted to keep, so it is all ready to go :)

  Hi Brittany,

  Do you also have copies of the images you want to keep (for example, the images used in the content you exported)? The export file doesn’t include copies of those images, so I just want to make sure before emptying the site and deleting them all.

  I do. Thank you! I appreciate the extra steps! When I first started this blog I wouldn’t have known that. Thank you for your help.
