    Hi there,

    Go to My Site ->Posts. Click Screen Options top-right of the screen, and select the Classic view.

    After doing that you’ll see a posts page where you can bulk-edit multiple posts at the same time. Select the filter at the top to show only published posts, and then you can bulk-delete them from there.

    Doing it manually like this is the only way – the only automated tool we have for bulk-deleting content is to completely empty ALL content on your site, so we cannot use that in this case.
