  I am new in website development. I just signed up for free wordpress website.

  I need to reset my wordpress website, is it possible?
  I have researched over the internet, and so far, resetting a wordpress website involves installing a plugin.

  Thank you in advance.

  Hi –

  What site are you trying to reset?

  Do you want the site wiped clean to start over? Please share more details.

  Hello,

  I would like to wipe clean the site and start anew.

  Somewhere I have messed up, particularly on the plugins. I have the default ones.

  Thank you.

  What’s the site URL?

  The reason I ask is because the account you’ve contacted us from only has a free site registered to it. On WordPress.com we require the business plan in order to use plugins.

  Hi!

  Yes, as Liz stated above, plugins are only for the business plans, but you should be able to reset your site by following the instructions here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/empty-site/.

  You might want to make a backup of what you have though, just in case! You can export your content before you erase it, following the instructions here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/export/.

  Do post again if you have any more questions! Thanks!
