  My hands shake. I am afraid I will accidentally click Delete Site in the Tools options and am hoping to find a way of making Delete Site unavailable on my site. Can you help me, please? Thank you!

  Open a second account (second email required) – then invite the second account in as an Editor –

  Other than that if you are an Admin the delete site is always there – but I can’t remember the last time I needed the tools section – so you should not be clicking on that option very often

  Yes it scares some people – but there are some checks in the delete process so it takes a bit to delete it as you need to confirm more than once that is what you want to do

  Thank you, auxclass!

  (Sorry, I’m not sure of how/where to respond. Can’t wait to know enough to move beyond newbie-dom.)

  Best to you,

  Good luck – the basics here are pretty simple – but it is like any new program or skill – takes a bit of learning to get started
