  I want to either delete my site or make it unsearchable/invisible. I’ve looked up how to do both of those things, but there is no ‘delete’ under ‘Tools’ and there is no ‘privacy’ under ‘Settings’ so I’m at a loss. How can I take my site down?

  Hi there,

  Of what site are you speaking? I don’t see any sites associated with your account.

  http://www.negativeflux.com is the web site that I am trying to get rid of.

  That is not a WordPress.com site, so we have no access and no control over it.

  That domain is registered with enom.com, and the site is hosted by Hostgator, so you’ll need to contact them to have the site taken offline.

  Is there a way to just make it blank?

  Other than going through and deleting all of the content by hand, that is.

  The best place for advice on that is the self-hosted WordPress.org forums, as that’s the version of WordPress you’re using:

  But depending on how completely you want to make it blank you can either use a plugin that deletes all the content, or a plugin that completely resets the databas, which will remove all other settings and customizations you made as well.
