  I’ve imported posts, but comments were not copied over. I want to delete all posts and try to re-import them again. Please do it for me.
  BTW, why it should be a request to support instead of delete content button, similar to delete site?

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

  Hi –

  Here are the instructions you will need to delete your posts:
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/empty-site/

  Once you are finished with emptying your site, you may find these videos helpful on getting started again: https://en.support.wordpress.com/video-quick-start/

  Please let me know if you need further help.

  Thanks for the answer.

  Why Site setting page https://wordpress.com/settings/start-over/mfreidge.wordpress.com suggests to contact Support instead of just have a reference to https://en.support.wordpress.com/empty-site/ ?

  It’s wasting a time for writing forum post and answering for it.

  The support page https://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/edit-posts-screen/#deleting-posts suggests to use Move to Trash from the Bulk Actions dropdown.
  But action applies only for one page in the list, that shows only 20 posts per page. I have to do manually 28 times for 28 pages of posts.

  Does support team has quicker tool?

  Hi –

  If you go to the screen options at top right of page https://YOUR-BLOG-NAME.wordpress.com/wp-admin/edit.php
  when viewing the post lists, you can edit the number of posts that show on in the list (increase to 100).
