  Hi there, To bulk edit posts to delete them on your above site, you’ll need to work in the WP Admin Posts Screen at https://cedervilleheights.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php and you’ll see a check box next to each post. Tick the box next to several posts at once or use the “select all” check box and then see the “Bulk Actions” at the top of the column. Change that to “Move to Trash” in the dropdown menu there and then click “Apply.”

  Posts in Trash will remain for 30 days and then be automatically deleted. If you want to immediately and permanently delete those posts, switch to the Trash folder by clicking on the link at the top of the columns and then the “Empty Trash” button. Once you’ve done that it will not be possible to recover a post.
