Need to delete old wordpress site
-
I really need to delete an old WordPress site of mine. It has been made years ago for a school assignment and it contains very personal information I wan’t to get off the internet. The site has been created with my student ID, but that email adress doesn’t excists anymore. The contact form on the site does redirect to my private mail. Please help me delete this site.

Hi,
The account username and password will ordinarily allow access to the site, and site deletion can then be accomplished as described in the Delete Site support page.
In the absence of either username or password, you may need to resort to recovery using the Account Recovery Form.

Clarification:
I meant to say, “The account username and password will ordinarily be sufficient for logging in, allowing access to the site.”

Hi there,
The account recovery form is exactly for when you don’t have the password – if you had the password you won’t need that form.
The account recovery form lets you verify your ownership of the site via other methods, and once verified, someone will follow up via email to help you regain access.
But if you can’t provide any of the verification info we require, then we won’t be able to give you access to the site. We have strict rules in place to prevent unauthorised access to users’ accounts, and we cannot make any exceptions in this regard.
