  Hello anyone who can help! I am trying to delete a WordPress site but I don’t understand why I cannot press the ‘Delete Site’ button at the very end. Is this a technical error?

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

  Hello there,

  All blogs are independent websites. What you do on one has NO impact on others. To delete a WordPress.COM hosted blog you must be logged in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the blog to navigate to Dashboard > Tools > Delete Site. The guide is here http://en.support.wordpress.com/delete-site/

  Deleted blog URLs are not recycled, regardless of who registered and deleted them and no exceptions are made except for the one stated here http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/

  Alternatively, to change blog visibility to Private go to > Settings > Reading scroll to Blog Visibility and choose option 3. See the guide here http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings

  Provided you are logged in as Admin under the exact same username account that registered the site go to https://wordpress.com/settings/delete-site/musingsofafluffhead.wordpress.com/ and click the “Delete Site” button.
