  Is it possible to delete posts by the month or by the year? I want to delete several years worth of posts.

  Hi there,
  If you do not have a lot of content you can easily delete all blog content by yourself rather than waiting for Staff to do it for you.

  As you are refering to years of posts I have flagged this thread for Staff assistance.

  I can’t delete specific years, but I can empty your entire blog for you.

  If you’d rather not empty the whole thing, I recommend bulk-deleting posts as described above.
