    Hi staff-zinnia – I read this and hoped it could be automated!

    “If you want a site but don’t want any of the posts and pages you have now, our support team can delete your posts, pages, media, and comments for you.

    This will keep your site and URL active, but give you a fresh start on your content creation. Just contact us to have your current content cleared out.

    Alternatively, you can delete all content from your site by following the steps here.

    Contact Support”

    The contact support button lead me to post here!

    Hi there.

    You can empty the site yourself. Here are instructions for that.

    Empty Your Site to Start Fresh

    You can also request that WordPress.com staff empty the site for you, if you’re willing to wait a bit for your request to be handled. If they empty the site, it will delete all of the data including posts, pages, tags, categories, comments and any media you’ve uploaded. Once deleted, it cannot be restored.

    If you’d like them to do this, you can add “modlook” as a tag to this thread (over in the right sidebar).

    Then reply back confirming that you understand that the emptying cannot be undone, and give the URL of the site you’d like for them to empty.

    I hope this helps.

    Thanks @noebiewan!

    I understand that the emptying cannot be undone, and would like it to be carried out.

    Hi, again. Sorry the other comments slipped in while I was posting.

    You can also contact support directly at the following link.

    Contact

    Once you start to type a question, there will be a button appear toward the bottom that says “Get In Touch With Support.” Clicking it starts a chat dialogue.

    i hope this helps.
