  I have a video on the front page of my site that I would like to remove. It’s a linked Facebook Live or YouTube interview I would like to remove but I don’t know where to do it. Doesn’t seem to be a page or a post.

  Hi there,

  Of what site are you speaking? Your account only owns one site, https://bobseidenberg.wordpress.com/, and that site hasn’t been updated since its creation in 2016.

  Hi there!

  There are no videos on your WordPress.com site. What’s the address of the site you’re working on?

  Please note that these forums are for WordPress.com hosted sites only. If your site is using the open-source WordPress.org software, we won’t be able to help you out and you’ll want to seek help at these forums:

  Hi @bobseidenberg,

  I double checked on whoishostingthis.com and according to https://www.whoishostingthis.com/#search=robertseidenberg.com your site is not hosted here on WordPress.com (Automattic) but on GoDaddy. Unfortunately the WordPress.com staff are unable to help in this case.

  If you use the open-source WordPress software (WordPress.org), you’ll need to go to their forum to get help: https://wordpress.org/support/forums/
  If you want to know more about the differences between WordPress.com and the WordPress software you can read the support post:
  https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/

  This WordPress.org thread might help:

  Sorry we couldn’t be of more assistance.

  I believe the most recent thread for this is https://wordpress.com/forums/topic/how-delete-video/. @bobseidenberg, please follow up there rather than creating duplicate threads for the same issue. Thanks.

  Oops, sorry! I meant https://wordpress.com/forums/topic/delete-video/!! That is the thread with the URL given. @bobseidenburg, unless you are referring to a different website here, you will need to go to https://wordpress.org/support/forums.

  @writer0001 thanks for that. :)

  
  @bobseidenberg, I’ve merged your two threads.

  The video on your front page is likely in widget area, so try going to Customize > Widgets to find it there.

  Then, going forward, you’ll also want to use the correct forums for self-managed installations, at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

  Or, you’d be welcome to migrate your site to our services. You can find our pricing here:

  Cheers!
