  Hello, if i want to delete the media does it affect the related post where the media was added?

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

  Hi
  If you delete the media from your site it is no longer available so it will affect the post, IF the post is on your site.

  best,

  Images and media you upload into your media library and embed into posts and pages are on wordpress.COM servers. They remain visible unless or until you delete them from your media library. Deleting them from your media library also removes them from every place you embedded them in the blog and leaves behind broken links in the site and everywhere the links appear on the internet..

  Staff cannot restore anything you delete from your Media Library. You have to upload the items all again, and then fix every broken image link in every post/page it was embedded into previously.

  If you upload lots of media you can exhaust your free space allocation quickly. Currently, the only way to get an extra space allocation after you upload the images again, is to purchase an upgrade bundle. https://en.support.wordpress.com/space-upgrade/
