  Hey,

  I’ve found out I need to start this over, putting a bit more thought into it, so can you delete this account, so I can create a new one when I’m ready?

  Thanks a bunch
  Eskild

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

  If you delete your account, you won’t be able to re-use the name. Are you going to want to re-use the same website address in the future? If so, I would recommend clearing your content and marking your site as private until you are ready to use it.

  You can either start over yourself or you can ask the staff to empty your site.

  Note: Please keep in mind this action is permanent.

  If you want to do it yourself, you can delete all of your content from your site and still keep your current WordPress.com address by performing the following steps:

  Delete all posts
  Delete all pages
  Delete all categories
  Delete all tags
  Delete all media

  If you want to have the staff do this, please add the modlook tag in the right column. You will need to be logged in to the user account you created the site with, confirm the URL of the site you would like them to empty, and that you understand this action is permanent.

  Hi Geoffrey

  Thanks for the responce. I wouldn’t mind the staff to empty it completely, but I’m not sure what the modlook tag is? The url is thomsen2016.wordpress.com.

  I understand that the action is permanent.

  There is a heading called Tags in the right column of this page where you can add tags that describe what your question is about – or to add Modlook to get the attention of a staff member.

  I have added the tag for you so a staff member should be able to assist you with this.

  Thank you @ geoffreyshilling :)

  @eskildthomsen your site did not have much content, but we have restarted it to the default for you. You can also make the site private here if you’d like:

  Cheers!

  Sweet thanks! Is it possible to go all the way back when I decided if they site should be an author site, fiction/poetry site and so on?

  @eskildthomsen it isn’t, but that doesn’t matter anyway. We only use that in site setup. Your site topic is whatever you write about. Cheers!
